FX
Negotiation
The iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX includes the FX Negotiation
feature, which helps ensure links with AN or forced FX
devices. Disabled by default, it must be enabled or disabled
on both ends of the connection to establish a link. Only
enable this feature if the connecting device supports it.
Master/Slave
Mode
Master/Slave mode determines which clock is used between
the iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX and the connected device. Slave
mode is set by default to use the clock of the connected
device. Master mode uses iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX's clock.
The Master/Slave mode is only valid for the twisted pair link
and can only be manually configured. Configure Master
mode by setting Dip Switch 8 to the
ON
position.
Flow Control
Flow Control is used to throttle the END device to avoid
dropping packets during network congestion. Full-Duplex
Flow Control functions only when the END device has Flow
Control and advertises in Full-Duplex Mode. Half-Duplex
