Side A Serial Transaction Mode
: These radio buttons allow the user to enable or disable Serial
Transaction Mode for Side A. When enabled the Router will send out 852 configuration updates
serially in a round robin fashion to the other 852 devices on the channel instead of in parallel.
This means that an update transaction has to complete or time-out with one device before a
new transaction is started with the next device. This mode significantly reduces bursts of traffic
when devices are added to a channel or their routing data is changed. This may be helpful for
low bandwidth 852 channels. Select the new value and click the
Submit Changes
button.
Side A Serial Transaction Interval
: This field sets the time interval between successive
configuration transactions when Serial Transaction Mode is enabled for Side A. The default is
1000 ms. This enables the user throttle the rate at which configuration updates are sent out on
the channel and thereby manage traffic. This may be helpful for low bandwidth 852 channels.
Enter the new value and click the
