PakBus Settings
•
Device addresses are automatically allocated but can be changed.
•
Device connections are used to determine whether neighbor lists should be
specified.
•
Verification intervals will depend on the activities between devices.
•
Beacon intervals will be assigned but will have default values.
•
Network role (e.g., router or leaf node) will be assigned based on device
links.
Device Links and Communication Resources
•
Disallow links that will not work.
•
Comparative desirability of links.
•
Prevent over-allocation of resources.
•
Optimal RS-232 and CS I/O ME baud rates based on device links.
•
Optimal packet size limits based upon anticipated routes.
Fundamentals of Planning a Network

Add a background (optional).
•
Place stations, peripherals, etc.
•
Establish links.
•
Set up activities (scheduled poll, callback).

7.7 Programming
Programs are created with either Short Cut
(p. 443)
or CRBasic Editor
(p. 109).
Programs can be up to 490 kB in size; most programs, however, are much smaller.
7.7.1 Writing and Editing Programs
7.7.1.1 Short Cut Editor and Program Generator
Short Cut is easy-to-use, menu-driven software that presents the user with lists of
predefined measurement, processing, and control algorithms from which to
choose. The user makes choices, and
Short Cut writes the CRBasic code required
to perform the tasks. Short Cut creates a wiring diagram to simplify connection of
