Read/Write Read/write.
Added to API Prior to LNS Release 3.0.
Delay
Summary Represents the average number of milliseconds required for a
packet to get sent to the application device once queued.
This property allows OpenLNS applications to specify the
number of milleseconds expected for an application to send a
message and receive an acknowledgment from the device.
This enables the automatic timer calculations made by
OpenLNS to be adjusted accordingly. This value will be
added to any delays calculated by OpenLNS based on the
network topology. When this property contains the default
value of 0, OpenLNS will not calculate an extra delay for the
device.
You can set the expected delay for a message to be sent to a
specific channel by writing to the Delay property of the
Channel object.
