[Visual Basic]

   ByVal pollDelay As Integer _
) As Integer

Parameters

pollDelay
Delay value in ms (Range: 0 - 100000), 0 disables poll delay

Return Value

BusProtocolErrors.FTALK_SUCCESS on success or error code. See BusProtocolErrors for possible error codes.

Remarks

This function sets the delay time which applies between two consecutive Modbus read/write. A value of 0 disables the poll delay.

The delay value is indicative only and not guaranteed to be maintained. How precise it is followed depends on the operating system used, it's scheduling priority and it's system timer resolution.

Note    A protocol must be closed in order to configure it.
