The master doesn't adjust it's EPR based on device's response.Primary Software: Driver Software>>NI-DNETPrimary Software Version: 1.0 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software:
Problem: According to Dnet Spec, the master is supposed to set its watchdog timer's based on the EPR value returned from the slave, but currently the nidnet master uses the EPR value that the user has set for the device instead of adjusting to the new one. Since most of the time the value returned from the device is rounded up (larger than the requested EPR), the scan rate of the master may end up sending requests to the devices at a faster rate than the device can handle, and eventually may result in connection timeout (though the chances of timeout are fairly small). Solution: Adjust EPR to a larger value for that device. Related Links: Attachments:
