How many messages are buffered on a 7716xx / 7718xx / 7756xx / 7780xx / 7792xx?

Issue How many messages are buffered on a 7716xx / 7718xx / 7756xx / 7780xx / 7792xx? Environment I/NET Seven PCU 7716, 7718, 7756, DLCU 7780, MRI 7792xx Cause Even though every device in the system contains a message queue, only a few of the devices will successfully buffer the queued messages for later distribution. All controllers and Taps distribute messages out of their RS485 port even with the absence of any LAN communication. This is due to the fact that there is no requirement for an acknowledgment to be received at the generating device. The RS485 LAN is for both solicited and unsolicited message traffic. The only devices that perform extended buffering are the ones which directly communicate to polling devices such as the 7801 Taps, 7803 Taps, 7804 Taps, and all DPUs/SCUs. The MRs, ASCs, and UCs do not generate messages; messages relating to these devices are generated by the relevant MRI, MCI, etc. Resolution The 7716xx/18xx/56xx/80xx/92xx can buffer approximately 150 messages.

Environment I/NET Seven  7798, 7798B, 7798B1 and 7798C (I/SITE LAN) (SLI) Cause Even though every device in the system contains a message queue, only a few of the devices will successfully buffer the queued messages for later distribution. All controllers and Taps distribute messages out of their RS485 port even with the absence of any LAN communication.

What type of BIN is used when selecting "Typical" or the default install of I/NET 2000?

Issue What type of BIN is used when selecting “Typical” or the default install of I/NET 2000? Environment I/NET 2000 site Cause Refer to the Communication chapter in TCON209, I/NET 2000 Technical Reference Guide for information on synchronous versus asynchronous communication. Resolution Determine whether you will use synchronous or asynchronous communication. Setup's Typical option (the default) installs asynchronous BIN files. You should choose the Synchronous option to install synchronous BIN files. You may switch from synchronous to asynchronous, or vice versa, at a later date by choosing the Custom option and then selecting the appropriate controller binary files. Instructions are provided in Chapter 2, Installing I/NET in TCON 213.
