2.6.11 Use CTS Line

Y

ES

or N

O

This parameter specifies if the Clear To Send (CTS) modem control line is to be

used or not. If the parameter is set to N

O

, the CTS line will not be monitored. If

the parameter is set to Y

ES

, the CTS line will be monitored and must be high

before the module will send data. Normally, this parameter is required when half-

duplex modems are used for communication (2-wire). This procedure is

commonly referred to as hardware handshaking.

2.6.12 Retry Count

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

2.6.13 Request Timeout

0 to 10000 milliseconds
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds to wait for a complete

request message. The timer is started after the DLE-STX character sequence is

received for the full-duplex protocol or the DLE-SOH sequence for the half-

duplex protocol. If the timer expires, the current request message will be aborted.

2.6.14 Busy Timeout

0 to 10000 milliseconds
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds to wait for the pass-through

port to become available.

2.6.15 ACK Timeout

0 to 10000 milliseconds
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds to wait for a DLE-ACK

character sequence after a response is issued.
