 Parameter 
 Description 
PLC to poll. 
 
2.4.2. 
Node Overview - Status Aspect 
Parameter 
Description 
Node 
The current node being displayed out of the total. 
Node Status 
For a client node. Online, offline, disabled or probation. 
Probation means that the node is in transition from offline to online. 
The node was offline, a poll has succeeded but the probation timeout 
has not expired so the node has not been returned to online yet. 
If the node isn’t a client node then it is reported as server. 
Node Mode 
Client or Server 
Retry State 
The state number of the node retry state engine – for FieldServer 
developers. 
Used Retries 
The total number of retries since start-up 
Recoveries 
The number of times that the driver has gone from offline to online. 
Active R/W on Startup 
This is an important indication if the driver appears not to be polling.  
 
Displays yes or no. 
If a Map Descriptor with function = “ARS” (Active Read on Startup) is 
found then this field reports as ‘yes’.  ARS Map Descriptors are 
scheduled to occur when a node is still offline and are only used once. 
They are intended to establish a connection or to log into a remote 
device.  No other Map Descriptors are polled until the ARS Map 
Descriptors complete normally. 
 
2.4.3. 
Node Overview - Operating Statistics Aspect 
Node statistics are a roll-up of all the statistics maintained by the Map Descriptors which 
belong to the node. For example, if three Map Descriptors belong to a single node, then 
each time a message is sent for each Map Descriptor, the statistics for the Map 
Descriptor, the node and the connection are updated.
