8. Set Parameter 36 - [Peer Inp Timeout] to the maximum amount of

time the adapter will wait for a message before timing out.

Important: This value must be greater than the product of Parameter

42 - [Peer Out Time] multiplied by Parameter 43 - [Peer
Out Skip]
in the adapter from which you are receiving I/O.

For example, if the value of Parameter 42 - [Peer Out Time] is 2.00
seconds and the value of Parameter 43 - [Peer Out Skip] is 2, then
Parameter 36 - [Peer Inp Timeout] needs to have a value greater than
4.00, such as 5.00 in the example below.

9. Set Parameter 34 - [Peer Flt Action] to the action that the adapter will

take if it times out.

For more details, see

Setting a Fault Action on page 3-11

.

10. Set Parameter 37 - [Peer Inp Enable] to ‘1’ (On).

The adapter is now configured to receive peer I/O from the specified node.
Verify that the specified node is configured to transmit peer I/O.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists.
Parameter 34 - [Peer Flt Action] lets you determine the action
of the adapter and connected drive if peer communication is
disrupted. By default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set
this parameter so that the drive continues to run, however,
precautions should be taken to verify that the setting of this
parameter does not create a hazard of injury or equipment
damage. When commissioning the drive, verify that your system
responds correctly to various situations (for example, a
disconnected cable).
