buttons. If the

Reset Max Time button is pressed, the Max Time On-Line

counter will be reset. If the

Don’t Reset button is pressed or if no button is

pressed, the connection will be terminated when Max Time On-Line is

reached.

The format for this field is 00 h(ours) 00 m(inutes) 00 s(econds).

If you are using LoggerNet Admin or LoggerNet Remote 4.0 or

higher and using the Connect Screen to connect to a remote server

that is running an older version of LoggerNet, the behavior will be

different than described above. When connecting to a LoggerNet

3.4.1 server, you will be disconnected with no advanced warning

when Max Time On-Line is reached. A message will be displayed

indicating that Max Time On-Line has been reached. When

connecting to servers older than LoggerNet 3.4.1, the behavior

will be variable. Generally, you will be disconnected at some

point, but the timing of the disconnect will not be predictable.

Attention Character - Enter the character that will be used to reset the radio

modem. By default, the radios are programmed to use the + character as the

Attention Character. However, if the radio is being used in a communications

link that includes a phone modem, you will most likely need to change this

character in the radio setup and on LoggerNet's Setup Screen. Most phone

modems use + as the reset character, and sending this character unexpectedly

will reset the modem and terminate the communications link.

Advanced
Maximum Packet Size - Data is transferred in "chunks" called packets. For

most devices the default value is 2048 byes. The value entered in this field can

be changed in 32 byte increments. If a communications link is marginal,

reducing the packet size may improve reliability.
