2.2.4 SIE Client x
This section defines general configuration for the SIE Client (Master).
Client Error/Status Pointer
-1 to 4990
This parameter sets the address in the internal database where the Client
error/status data will be placed. If the error/status data needs to be moved to the
processor and placed into the ReadData array, the value entered should be a
module memory address in the Read Data area. If the value is set to -1, the
error/status data will not be stored in the module's internal database and will not
be transferred to the processor's ReadData array.
Enabling the Error/Status Pointer is optional. Alternatively, the error/status data
for a specific Client can be requested by the processor and returned in a special
Client Status block. For more information, see Client Status Blocks (page 143).
Command Error Pointer
-1 to 4999
This parameter sets the address in the internal database where the Command
Error List data will be placed. If you want the Command Error List data to be
moved to the processor and placed into the ReadData array, the value entered
should be a module memory address in the Read Data area. If the value is set to
-1, the Command Error List data will not be stored in the module's internal
database and will not be transferred to the processor's ReadData array.
Enabling the Command Error Pointer is optional. Alternatively, the Command
Error List data for a specific Client can be requested by the processor and
returned in a special Client Status block. For more information, see Client Status
Blocks (page 143).
Minimum Command Delay
0 to 65535 milliseconds
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds to wait between the initial
issuances of a command. This parameter can be used to delay all commands
sent to servers to avoid "flooding" commands on the network. This parameter
does not affect retries of a command as they will be issued when failure is
recognized.
Response Timeout
0 to 65535 milliseconds
This parameter specifies the time in milliseconds that a Client will wait before re-
transmitting a command if no response is received from the addressed server.
The value to use depends on the type of communication network used, and the
expected response time of the slowest device on the network.
