Example 3 – Limited Number of Connection Retries to the Same Host
(via "Retry" Feature)
In this example, the RM / BTC connects automatically to a predefined host A. If the connection
fails or gets lost, the RM / BTC will try to reconnect to host A 3 times. If the connection cannot
be established, the RM / BTC will not connect to host A after the third retry. After the third retry
fails, the user automatically returns to the RM Shell home screen.
Use case: This enables the user to manually select an alternative connection if the main con-
nection to host A failed.
