Keepalive is a function supported by TCP. It sends packets at constant time intervals and automati-
cally disconnects when there is no corresponding response. This instrument sends packets at 30-
second time intervals. If a response is not received, it sends 4 more packets at one-second intervals.
If a response is still not received, the connection is dropped.
Have dip switch 4 turned OFF.
