Change
“TCP Connection Timeout” from its factory default of 32 seconds
if so desired. Minimum timeout is 16 seconds. Enter 0 to disable
timeout. If TCP activity has not been detected by the Node for this
timeout period, the TCP connection is broken by the Node. Press GO to enter any change. Background: Each Node has an IP address. This is a 4-byte number (e.g., 192.168.0.57) which is used to address Ethernet nodes on a local area network (LAN) or on the Internet (WAN). An IP address can be static and public so that it can be addressed on a WAN and have an associated domain name. It can also be a dynamic address assigned by a router or other DHCP server on a LAN. Such an address is also called a private or local IP address. Our Node-resident firmware automatically discovers the IP address of all Nodes on a LAN or WAN, plus any devices connected to each Server Node via an RS485 bus. |
