Port properties are the same for all ports except where noted.
User
defines the user of the port. Default is Seresco which means
the port is opened for inbound traffic using the Seresco protocol.
Other users are other protocols like LON and Modbus as well as
3&4 compressor slave board communication.
Baud Rate, Databits and Parity
defines your common serial port
configuration parameters.
Flow Control
defines if hardware flow control should be used.
Can only be configured for the RS-232 port (port B).
Echo Test
defines if we will do an echo test every time we
transmit data over the port. Normally all data should be echoed
back and therefore adding the echo test enable us to have one more
test to ensure data was transmitted with no errors. However, if
there is a minor hardware problem with the port chip, this will
cause the port not to work at all. Disabling the echo test might
enable us to still use the port even with the hardware error.
Reply Delay
defines for how long we will wait for a reply message
before considering it a communication fault.
5.5.3.WebSentry
These properties controls WebSentry connection.
Set
Enabled
to No to disable WebSentry. You can do this if you
temporarily want to disable WebSentry connections. Also you
should do this if a unit is not connected to the Internet to avoid
unnecessary attempts trying to detect a physical network link.
Use DNS
controls if DNS should be used to resolve the IP address
associated with the hard coded WebSentry server name. You
should set this to No if there seems to be a problem resolving the
IP address and instead use the IP property to define the IP address.
IP
is the WebSentry server IP address. Use this property to
configure the IP address or to see what it is if DNS is enabled.
Port
is the WebSentry port to connect to. This is configurable in
case the port will change in the future.
Comm Interval
is how often the system will try to connect to the
WebSentry server between disconnects.
