Minimum Data Length

This menu item, which appears for all Hub types except Fixed, displays the
current Minimum Data Length in milliseconds and bytes for the remotes in the
group, and represents the minimum amount of data that can be transmitted or
received in one spin of the STDMA cycle by each of the remotes belonging to
that group. This is the minimum amount of time that the remote is provided to
send data in the cycle.
Entering an M at the command prompt brings up the dialog shown in
figure 3-18 allowing the minimum data length, in milliseconds, to be changed
for the target CDD-56X.

Slot Cycle Length

This menu item is for information only and displays the Slot Cycle Length in
milliseconds and bytes for the remotes in the group. This value represents the
total amount of time—preamble, data length, and guardband—allocated to the
Remote terminal during one spin cycle.
