nciMinOutTm versus nciSendHrtBt
The nciMinOutTm has priority over nciSendHrtBt. This means that
heartbeats will not be sent as often as specified in nciSendHrtBt if
nciMinOutTm has a longer time set.
Error Handling
If nciRcvHrtBt is larger than zero, and heartbeats are not received within
the nciRcvHrtBt time, then communication with the LonWorks network
is considered disrupted. The adapter response to loss of communication
depends on the setting of adapter Parameter 06 - [Comm Flt Action].
Refer to Chapter
5, Troubleshooting for more information on potential
problems with the adapter and network.
