the negotiated PakBus® link verification interval. When
Active Interface
is
PakBus Router
, hello transactions will occur over RF; otherwise, they will be
sent over the serial port selected as the
Active Interface
.
If
PakBus Verify Interval
is set to zero, a verify interval of 2.5 times the
PakBus Beacon Interval
will be reported by the device.
It is advised that
PakBus Verify Interval
be set to an interval
several times larger than your expected general communication
interval, for example, data collection interval.
11.2.4 Central Router
Specifies the PakBus® address of another device that the RF401A series will
use as a
Central Router
. A valid setting is a single address between 1 and
4094. When set, the RF401A series will act as a branch router. Specifying a
central router address can reduce the amount of PakBus® RF traffic by
eliminating the exchange of neighbo
u
r lists with routers beyond the central
router. This is especially true when the network contains many transient or
intermittent PakBus® routers. If the RF401A series does not know how to
explicitly route a packet, it will be handed off to the
Central Router
specified
by this setting.
11.2.5 Neighbo
u
rs Allowed
This setting specifies an explicit list of nodes the RF401A series will accept as
neighbo
u
rs when acting in the capacity of a PakBus® RF repeater / router. If
the list is empty (default), any node will be accepted as a neighbo
u
r. This
setting will not affect the acceptance of a neighbo
u
r if that node’s address is
greater than 3999. The formal syntax for this setting is:
neighbo
u
r := { "(" range-begin "," range-end ")" }.
range-begin := pakbus-address. ;
range-end := pakbus-address.
pakbus-address := number. ; 0 < number < 4000
Example: (129,129) (1084, 1084)
In the example above, nodes 129 and 1084 are assigned as neighbo
u
rs to the
RF401A series.
