. The Control Timeout (N42:3) is stored in RAM. If the

20-COMM-E adapter is power cycled, the Control Timeout Message must be re-sent. If the Control Timeout is not changed from a non-zero value, the

control message (

page 4-45

) will error out.

TIP: The Control Timeout (N42:3) must be changed to a non-zero value
(5…20 seconds recommended). If the Control Timeout is not changed from
a non-zero value, the control message (

page 4-45

) will error out. The

Control Timeout is stored in RAM. If the adapter is power cycled, the
Control Timeout Message must be re-sent.
