3.5.4 Diagnostics of the TIM message protocol
With a few exceptions relating to format and the diagnostic data, the functions and handling
of the TIM message protocol are largely identical with those of the other message protocol
types
Testcopy DB and ST7cc/ST7sc protocol . The description can therefore also be applied
to the other message protocol types.
Structure of the TIM message protocol
The upper part of the TIM message protocol dialog summarizes the following information:
- Total number of messages,
- Number of messages shown,
- Source and path of the protocol file
Below this, there is the list of TIM messages, that has nine columns as default and provides
the following information on every message:
- A symbol for incoming and outgoing messages
- Message number
- Source: number of the open message protocols in ascending order
- msec: Recording time with DB TestCopyData and ST7cc/ST7sc protocols
- Block: Number of the message block with TIM message protocols
- Subscriber number of the message source and destination
- ST1 message number (only for SINAUT ST1 messages)
- Object number of message source and destination
- Index no.: Address parameters for net data in data messages
