Configuring the Option Module Chapter 3
Setting the Comm Loss Time
Set
Device Parameter 17 - [Comm Loss Time] to a communication loss timeout
period suitable for your application.
By default, the timeout is set to 10 seconds. This value can be increased or
decreased. Alternatively, the value can be set to zero (0) to disable this timeout
feature so that the option module does not detect a communication loss.
Changes to this parameter take effect immediately. A reset is not required.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Device
Parameter 17 - [Comm Loss Time] lets you determine how long it will
take the option module to detect a network communication loss. By
default, this parameter sets the timeout to ten (10) seconds. You can set it
so that the duration is shorter, longer, or disabled. When set to disabled,
this also disables Host Parameter 33 - [Comm Flt Action]. Therefore, a
communication fault action will be ignored. Take precautions to verify that
the setting does not create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When
commissioning the drive, verify that your system responds correctly to
various situations (for example, a disconnected cable).
