TP Repeater Application
Irrespective of in which line it is processed, any received telegram is routed. Line repeaters
make no use of a filter table.
If a telegram is routed by MECps640 without receiving the corresponding acknowledgement,
i.e. due to a missing receiver or to a transmission error, the telegram will be repeated up to
three times (depending on the ETS setting). With the parameters „Repetitions if errors...“, this
function can be configured separately for each line and both kinds of telegrams. It is
recommended to use the default parameter setting.
If not configured as Line Repeater, the ETS application program “TP
Repeat
er” has to be
downloaded to the device. Under the ETS Information tab, the application can be changed.
Updating the application program version can also be done here.
