3.2 Time period of the case that data re-transmission of divided packet is occurred at packet
transmission mode
When packet data size is exceeding 26 bytes, it is divided into several packets that data size is 26 bytes. At
that time, each divided packet is sent defined re-transmission times. Thus, maximum data transmission
period will be (setting of REG11 re 1) x 5 times. (REG11 register is a parameter of data
re-transmission frequency.)
It takes 3.7 ms if data transmission failure is occurred once. Therefore, total data processing time is like
below formula.

Binary data is transmitted at packet transmission mode:

In this case, if data transmission failure is occurred in any given
divided packet, following packets are not transmitted. Therefore,
total data transmission period is fluctuated.
Example 1: At the line speed set to 115,200 bps and bit length per byte set to 10 bits, time period of the data
transmission failure detection is 53.1 ms if the first packet data is fail to transmit. (Size of the
message is 130 bytes. Setting of data re-transmission frequency is 10 times.)

Example 2: At the line speed set to 115,200 bps and bit length per byte set to 10 bits, time period of the data
transmission failure detection is 215.9 ms if the fifth packet data is fail to transmit. (Size of the
message is 130 bytes. Setting of data re-transmission frequency is 10 times.)

As shown above, the total transmission time is largely fluctuated by the condition of the data transmission.
To keep communication response well, size of the message should be less than 26 bytes.
