The KINGFISH driver operates by:
- Requesting data that has changed in Networktables (outstation
RTU's). To do this it polls the comms update counter (#YLUPDCrrr,
rrr is RTU number) of each active Networktable (RTU) regularly. Any
Networktables (RTU's) that have changed data are polled.
- Polling all data in Networktables (RTU's) at multiples of the
Watchtime interval, to maintain data no older than Watchtime.
Currently the update counter in the Master is not changed when
data is changed locally (using ladder logic for instance) or when
IO points change. In this situation, in order to obtain fast
updates increment the comms update counter (#YLUPDCrrr) when IO
points or other register change.
