A success is recorded when a valid message is received or when a reply is received to a message sent to an
RTU. A fail is recorded each time there is no reply to a message attempt within the timeout period. An
example of Comms Statistics logged by RTU1 for communications to RTU2 are shown below.
Note: Fails will be recorded if too many messages are initiated (eg. each scan of ladder logic) or if the RTU
does not wait long enough for a reply. To ensure the RTU waits until the message attempt has timed out,
please use the #YPSTnn.2 bit as detailed in the topic Example - Polling Data.
