[DFNT Client x]

This section defines the configuration for the DFNT Client (master) device

simulated on network port

2.3.1 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.

2.3.2 Response Timeout

0 to 65535 milliseconds
This is 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.

2.3.3 Retry Count

0 to 10
This parameter specifies the number of times a command will be retried if it fails.
