This option allows the controller to be connected to a host computer via a
RS422/485 or DMCS bus. Fifteen units can be configured over this link.
The controller looks for messages from the computer at regular intervals.
If these messages are not received within the configured shed time, the
controller will SHED from the communications link and return to stand
alone operation. The device address, parity, and baud rate are
configurable.
ATTENTION
FM-approved Limit controllers with Communications
option are limited to READ ONLY (monitoring only) functionality.
Table 4-4 lists all the function prompts in the "COMMUNICATIONS"

with the communications option.
SHED TIME—The number that represents how many
sample periods there will be before the controller sheds
from communications. Each period equals 1/3 seconds or
0 = No shed.
PARITY pertains to the use of a self-checking code
employing binary digits in which the total number of ONE's
(or ZERO's) in each permissible code expression is either
ODD or EVEN.
