22. From the

Global Output Words

drop-down, select the default number of global

output data words to be transmitted by this adapter card.

Note

By default, the driver will not transmit any global output data until a user application

writes to the global output data buffer. However, the driver can be configured to

transmit up to 32 words of global output data even before any application writes to this

buffer. The data buffer will be set to zero.

23. From the

Health Timeout

list, select

500

msec, which is the default value.

Note

The Health Timeout interval specifies the minimum time period that the Peer Cop

configured communication must fail before the associated health bit is cleared. There is

a 20 msec latency in this timeout value. Thus, the maximum amount of time that

elapses before the health bit clears is the configuration time plus 20 msec.

For example, if the health timeout is 60 msec, then the health bit will be cleared no

sooner than 60 msec and no later than 80 msec after loss of communication.

24. The adapter card is now fully configured. Click the

button, and then close the

Device Manager.
