Poll
|
The poll time to check
for network communication. Default to 0 (interrupt mode), range 0
to 1000
|
DatRecBuf
|
Number of datagram
receive buffers. These buffers are used to receive datagrams from
the Citect for DOS network requests. Default 4, range 1 to 12. See
Q1308 for problems associated with the
parameter.
|
LanA
|
The LanA stack the
Citect for DOS network will use. The Citect for DOS support only
supports 1 network stack. The default is the first stack as setup
under the LAN section. You may specify another LanA stack via this
option. Range 0 to 8.
|
Server
|
Enable this computer as
a Citect for DOS server. This will make this computer send
responses to requests from Citect for DOS clients. Default to 0,
range 0 or 1.
|
Client
|
Enable this computer as
a Citect for DOS client. This will make this computer send request
to CItect for DOS servers and receive response from them.Default to
0, range 0 or 1
|
Name
|
Citect for DOS I/O
Server name. This is the name of this computers DOS I/O Server. The
Units configured under this I/O Server will be enabled onto the
network. Default DOSServer.
|
SendDelay
|
The send delay time in
milliseconds. Any data to be send to the CItect for DOS network is
delayed this time so it may be optimized to build larger packets.
Default is 20, range 0 to 5000.
|
ReadPool
|
This buffer pool is
used to unload data from the network for Citect for DOS support.
When Citect runs short of this pool, the hardware error 'Out of
buffers' will be generated and this will degrade the network
performance. Default 32, range 1 to 126.
|
WritePool
|
This buffer pool is
used to buffer write data to the network for Citect for DOS
support. Default 32, range 1 to 126.
|
SwapBytes
|
Swap the bytes for data
being returned from Citect for DOS server to Citect for Windows.
This may be required as the byte order for some PLC protocols has
changed from Citect for DOS to Citect for Windows. If digital data
is displayed incorrectly try this option. You may have to use this
option in association with SwapBits. Default 0, range 0 or
1.
|
SwapBits
|
Swap the bits for data
being returned from Citect for DOS server to Citect for Windows.
This may be required as the bit order for some PLC protocols has
changed from Citect for DOS to Citect for Windows. If digital data
is displayed incorrectly try this option. You may have to use this
option in association with SwapBytes. Default 0, range 0 or
1.
