5.5.2 VESDAnet Options
The VESDAnet options provide the ability to control network data transmission behaviour for VESDAnet
connections.
Note: Refer to Section 5.6 for the default settings.
The Communications configuration options are as follows:
Preferred Port: The preferred VESDAnet port to be used to transmit network data from this device. The
l
non-preferred port is used if for some reason transmissions on the preferred port fail. For best
performance in large networks, this setting should be randomly distributed between connected devices.
Loop Open Ended on This Device: This should be checked if the network has been wired so either
l
VESDAnet port A or VESDAnet B is not connected on this detector. (Xtralis recommends that
VESDAnet ports A and B are always connected so this option should normally not be checked.).
Minimum interval between status events: The minimum time interval between status updates for the
l
selected detector.
