At the bottom of the screen there are the general parameters of the Modbus Master configuration. The reading interval,
given in tenths of seconds (maximum 18,000, equivalent to 30 minutes) is the time that you want FieldLogger to make a
new scan of all configured remote channels. The number of trials (valid range: 1 to 10) is how many attempts are made
in sequence for the reading of each channel (if the communication fails in all attempts it will display the error value set up
for the channel).
The maximum response time (valid range: 2 to 10,000 ms) indicates how long, after sending the command from the
master, it will wait for the slave’s response. If the answer does not come within this time, this will be considered a
communication error and a new try (if configured) will be carried through. The time between commands (valid range:
1000 to 5000 ms) indicates how much time FieldLogger will wait between receiving the slave’s response and sending
the next command.
