Two firmware-selectable packing algorithms define how and when packets are sent to the 
network. The standard algorithm is optimized for applications in which the unit is used in a 
local environment, allowing for very small delays for single characters while keeping the 
packet count low. The alternate packing algorithm minimizes the packet count on the network 
and is especially useful in applications in a routed Wide Area Network (WAN). Adjusting 
parameters in this mode can economize the network data stream.  

Pack control settings are enabled in Flush Mode. Set this value to 00 if specific functions are 
not needed.  
Note: See Table 35 - Binary to Hexadecimal Conversion Table.

Idle Time: Idle time to "Force transmit" defines how long the unit should wait before 
sending accumulated characters. This wait period is between characters. If there is an idle 
period between characters equal to the force transmit set, then the unit will package up the 
serial data currently in the buffer and send it to the network.  

Trailing Characters: In some applications, CRC, Checksum, or other trailing characters 
follow the end-of-sequence character; this option helps to adapt frame transmission to the 
frame boundary.
