Auto-Reconnection Function - Advantech ADAM-4570W User Manual

3.3.4 Auto-Reconnection Function

Sometimes, the system may crash because the EDG device is interrupted
or powered-off by accident. You would want the host PC to reconnect to
the EDG device automatically after such an occurrence. The EDG device
provides an "Auto-reconnect" function to solve this problem. If the EDG
device is powered-off accidentally, the driver will keep trying to recon-
nect the EDG Series automatically. When the EDG device recovers or is
powered-on, due to this auto-reconnect function, the host PC's com-
mands will be received by the EDG device again. This function enhances
the reliability of the system.
Warning:
Figure 3.22: Auto Reconnect
If you want to enable the "Auto-reconnect" func-
tion, please note that you can NOT enable the
"Host idle" function at the same time. The same
also applies in reverse, e.g. if you want to enable
the "Host idle" function, you also can NOT enable
the"Auto-reconnect" function at the same time.
