Packet Forwarding Commands

eof2

When enabled, creates a sequence of characters that must be received to define the end

of the frame (if the EOF1 character is not immediately followed by the EOF2 character,

the IOLAN waits for another EOF1 character to start the EOF1/EOF2 character
sequence), which defines when the frame is ready to be transmitted. The transmission

of the frame is based on the Trigger Forwarding Rule. Valid values are in hex 0-FF. The

default is 0.

force-transmit-timer

When the specified amount of time, in milliseconds, elapses after the first character is
received from the serial port, the packet is transmitted. After a packet is transmitted, the

next character received starts the timer again. A value of zero (0) ignores this parameter.

Valid values are 0-65535 ms. The default is 0.

forwarding-rule

Determines what is included in the Frame (based on the EOF1 or EOF1/EOF2) or
Packet (based on Trigger1 or Trigger1/Trigger2). Choose one of the following options:

z

Strip-Trigger—Strips out the EOF1, EOF1/EOF2, Trigger1, or Trigger1/Trigger2,

depending on your settings.

z

Trigger—Includes the EOF1, EOF1/EOF2, Trigger1, or Trigger1/Trigger2,

depending on your settings.

z

Trigger+1—Includes the EOF1, EOF1/EOF2, Trigger1, or Trigger1/Trigger2,

depending on your settings, plus the first byte that follows the trigger.

z

Trigger+2—Includes the EOF1, EOF1/EOF2, Trigger1, or Trigger1/Trigger2,
depending on your settings, plus the next two bytes received after the trigger.

idle-timer

The amount of time, in milliseconds, that must elapse between characters before the

packet is transmitted to the network. A value of zero (0) ignores this parameter. Valid

values are 0-65535 ms. The default is 0.

packet-size

The number of byte that must be received from the serial port before the packet is
transmitted to the network. A value of zero (0) ignores this parameter. Valid values are

0-1024 bytes. The default is 0.

sof1

When enabled, the Start of Frame character defines the first character of the frame, any

character(s) received before the Start of Frame character is ignored. Valid values are in
hex 0-FF. The default is 0.

sof2

When enabled, creates a sequence of characters that must be received to create the start

of the frame (if the SOF1 character is not immediately followed by the SOF2 character,

the IOLAN waits for another SOF1 character to start the SOF1/SOF2 character
sequence). Valid values are in hex 0-FF. The default is 0.

start-frame-transmit

When enabled, the SOF1 or SOF1/SOF2 characters will be transmitted with the frame.

If not enabled, the SOF1 or SOF1/SOF2 characters will be stripped from the

transmission.
