55.11 DiscoOptions
DiscoOptions is an executable applet installed with
CobraNet Discovery and used to alter the operational
parameters of the Configuration functions.
CobraNet Discovery and used to alter the operational
parameters of the Configuration functions.
55.11.1General usage
This applet provides a convenient way of changing the
operational parameters used by the Configuration
functions. The applet can be launched at any time, but
the values are only read by the Configuration dialog
when it is launched. Therefore, this applet should be
used when the Configuration dialog is not active.
The default values will allow proper operation in most
cases and should not require changing except in
specialized or extreme cases.
It may be useful to increase the Timeout or Retries
values when accessing devices on a very busy network
or devices that themselves are heavily loaded.
Changes are saved only when OK is pressed. Pressing
Cancel or closing the dialog will exit without saving
changes.
