Remarks
Configures master transmit time-out supervision. The slave can monitor
whether a master is actually transmitting characters or not.
This function sets the transmit time-out to the specified value.
A value of 0 disables the time-out, which stops time-out
notifications being sent to the Data Provider.
 Note |
|---|
| The time-out value is a minimum value only and the actual time may be longer. How precise it is followed depends on the operating system used, its scheduling priority and its system timer resolution. |
| Note |
|---|
| The time-out does not check whether a master is sending valid frames. The transmission of characters is sufficient to avoid the time-out. |
