Protocol Options

• No class zero poll to initialize items

  • Default = Not selected. By default, a class 0 poll is sent to initialize class 1-3 items upon activation. Select this option to not send the class 0 initialization poll.

• No data integrity check in demand poll

  • Default = Not selected. The data integrity check item sends a class 0 poll that updates all class 1-3 items. By default, this will be done both on interval and as part of any demand poll that includes the data integrity check item. Select this option to not send the class 0 data integrity check poll in a demand poll.

• Use select-operate for control writes

  • Default = Not selected. By default, control writes are performed using the direct operate command. Some devices, such as the Emerson FBx, don't support direct operate control writes.  Select this option to use the select-operate command instead.

• Initialize class 1-3 after comm fail

  • Default = Not selected. Class 1-3 polls only return values for items that have changed since the previous class 1-3 poll. Because of this, if class 1-3 items are invalidated after a communication failure, by default they will not become valid again until their value changes in the device. Select this option to send a class 0 poll to initialize the class 1-3 items after a communication failure, so that all class 1-3 items will become valid again immediately once communication is restored.
