A6.5.2 Descriptions for LM Parameters
The following describes LM parameters of an EJX
multivariable transmitter.
NOTE: Do not turn off the power to the EJX for 60 seconds
after making a change to its parameter settings.

(3) PrimaryLinkMasterFlagVariable
Explicitly declares the LAS. Writing “true” (0xFF)
to this parameter in a device causes that device to
attempt to become the LAS. However, a request
of writing “true” to this parameter in a device is
rejected if the value of the same parameter in any
other device that has a smaller node address within
the same segment is true.
(4) LiveListStatusArrayVariable
A 32-byte variable, in which each bit represents the
status of whether a device on the same segment
is live or not. The leading bit corresponds to the
device address 0x00, and nal bit to 0xFF. The
value of LiveListStatusArrayVariable in the case
where devices having the addresses 0x10 and
0x15 in the eldbus segment is shown below.
0x00 00 84 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

(5) MaxTokenHoldTimeArray
An 8×64 byte array variable, in which each set of
2 bytes represents the delegation time (set as an
octet time) assigned to a device. The delegation
time denotes a time period that is given to a device
by means of a PT message sent from the LAS
within each token circulation cycle.
The leading 2 bytes correspond to the device
address 0x00, and the nal 2 bytes to the device
address 0xFF. Specify the subindex to access this
parameter.
(6) BootOperatFunctionalClass
Writing 1 to this parameter in a device and
restarting the device causes the device to start as
a basic device. On the contrary, writing 2 to this
parameter and restarting the device causes the
device to start as an LM.
