Communication and Protocol Settings
This section describes the various communication and protocol settings that you can select for each protocol.
DH-485 Communication Settings
DH-485 Protocol Settings
Configurable DH-485 Communication Settings
Setting Default Description
Baud Rate 19,200 Toggles between the communication rate of 1200, 2400, 9600, and 19,200.
Max Node Address
31 This is the maximum node address of an active processor. The valid range is 1...31.
Token Hold Factor
1 This parameter determines the number of transactions allowed, in order to make each DH-485 token rotation. Increasing this value lets your processor increase its DH-485 throughput. This also decreases throughput to other processors on the DH-485 link. The valid range is 1...4.
DF1 Full-duplex Communication Settings
Baud Rate 19,200 Selects a communication rate supported by all devices in your system. Configure all devices in the system for the same communication rate.
Parity Bit None Parity provides additional message-packet error detection. To implement even parity checking, choose Even. To implement no parity checking, choose None.
Stop Bit 1 Matches the number of stop bits to the devices with which you are communicating.
10 1747-DPS2 Software Configuration Utility
Error Detection CRC With this selection, you choose how the 1747-DPS2 port splitter checks the accuracy of each DF1 packet transmission.
BCC: This algorithm provides a medium level of data security. It cannot detect:
• transposition of bytes during transmission of a packet.
• the insertion or deletion of data values of zero within a packet.
CRC: This algorithm provides a higher level of data security.
Select an error detection method that all devices in your configuration can use.
When possible, choose CRC.
Embedded Response
Auto-detect To use embedded responses, choose Enabled. If you want the 1747-DPS2 port splitter to use embedded responses only when it detects embedded responses from another device, choose Auto-detect.
If you are communicating with another Allen-Bradley device, choose Enabled. Embedded responses increase network traffic efficiency.
Detect Duplicate Packet
Enabled The Duplicate Detect parameter lets the 1747-DPS2 port splitter detect if it has received a message that is a duplicate of its most recently received message. If you choose duplicate detect, the 1747-DPS2 port splitter will acknowledge (ACK) the message but will not pass it on since it has already passed the original message on.
If you want to detect duplicate packets and discard them, check this parameter. If you want to accept duplicate packets and pass them on, leave this parameter unchecked.
Configurable DF1 Full-duplex Communication Settings
DF1 Full-duplex Protocol Settings
ACK Timeout 50 The amount of time in 20 ms increments that you want the 1747-DPS2 port splitter to wait for an acknowledgment to the message it has sent before sending an enquiry (ENQ) for the reply.
NAK Retries 3 The number of times the 1747-DPS2 port splitter will resend a message packet because the 1747-DPS2 port splitter received a NAK response to the previous message packet transmission.
ENQ Retries 3 The number of ENQs that you want the 1747-DPS2 port splitter to send after an ACK timeout occurs.
Control Line No handshaking This parameter defines the mode in which the driver operates.
Choose a method appropriate for your system’s configuration. If you are not using a modem, choose No Handshaking. If you are using full-duplex modems, choose Full-duplex Modem.
Configurable DF1 Half-duplex Master Communication Settings
Baud Rate 1200 Selects a communication rate supported by all devices in your system. Configure all devices in the system for the same communication rate.
Stop Bit 1 Matches the number of stop bits to the device with which you are communicating.
Polling Mode Message Based Message Based Polling means that only the time that the master polls a slave is after it has initiated a message to that slave. Slave-initiated messages will not work in Message Based Polling Mode. The 1747-DPS2 port splitter does not support Standard Polling Mode.
Checked The Duplicate Detect parameter lets the 1747-DPS2 port splitter detect if it has received a message that is a duplicate of its most recently received message. If you choose duplicate detect, the 1747-DPS2 port splitter will acknowledge (ACK) the message but will not pass it on since it has already passed the original message on.
Configurable DF1 Half-duplex Master Communication Settings
Configurable DF1 Half-duplex Master Protocol Settings
Control Line No Handshaking This parameter defines the mode in which the driver operates. Choose a method appropriate for your system’s configuration.
If you are not using a modem, choose No Handshaking. If the master modem is full-duplex, choose Full-duplex Modem.
If all of the modems in the system are half-duplex, choose Half-duplex Without Continuous Carrier.
ACK Timeout 50 The amount of time in 20 ms increments that you want the 1747-DPS2 port splitter to wait for an acknowledgment to the message it has sent before the 1747-DPS2 port splitter retries the message or the message errors out. This timeout value is also used for the poll response timeout.
RTS Off Delay 0 Defines the amount of time in 20 ms increments that elapses between the end of the message transmission and the de-assertion of the RTS signal. This time delay should normally be left at zero.
RTS Send Delay 0 Defines the amount of time in 20 ms increments that elapses between the assertion of the RTS signal and the beginning of the message transmission. This time lets the modem prepare to transmit the message. The clear-to-send (CTS) signal must be high for transmission to occur.
Pre-transmit Delay
0 Defines the amount of time in 1 ms increments that elapses between when the 1747-DPS2 port splitter has a message to send and when it either asserts the RTS signal (if handshaking is selected) or begins transmitting (if no handshaking is selected).
Message Retries
3 Defines the number of times a master station retries either:
• a message before it declares the message undeliverable.
• or a poll packet to an active station before the master station declares that station to be inactive.
A poll packet is transmitted prior to each message retry.
Reply Message Wait Time
1 Defines the amount of time in 20 ms increments that the master station will wait after receiving an ACK signal (to a master-initiated message) before polling the slave station for a reply.
Choose a time that is, at minimum, equal to the longest time that a slave station needs to format a reply packet. This would typically be the maximum scan time of the slave station.
Configurable DF1 Half-duplex Master Protocol Settings
Configurable DF1 Half-duplex Slave Communication Settings
Stop Bit 1 Matches the number of stop bits to the device with which you are communicating.
EOT Suppression
Unchecked If you want to minimize traffic on the network, you can choose to have the slave station not send EOT packets to the master station. When EOT packets are suppressed, the master station automatically assumes a slave station has no data to give if the slave station does not send a message packet as a response to a poll.
A disadvantage of suppressing EOTs is that the master station cannot distinguish between an active station that has no data to transmit and an inactive station.
A possible application for suppressing EOTs is conserving power with a radio modem because the radio transmitter does not have to power-up to transmit a DLE EOT packet (no data to give packet).
To suppress EOTs, check this parameter. To have the processor send EOTs, leave this parameter unchecked.
Configurable DF1 Half-duplex Slave Communication Settings
Configurable DF1 Half-duplex Slave Protocol Settings
Polling Timeout 3000 The timer keeps track of how often in 20 ms increments the station is polled. If the 1747-DPS2 port splitter has a message to send, it starts the timer.
If the poll timeout expires, the 1747-DPS2 port splitter returns an error to the controller.
RTS Send Delay 0 Defines the amount of time in 20 ms increments that elapses between the assertion of the RTS signal and the beginning of the message transmission. This time allows the modem to prepare to transmit the message. The CTS signal must be high for transmission to occur.
Message Retries
3 Defines the number of times a slave station resends its message to the master station before the 1747-DPS2 port splitter returns an error to the controller.
Pre-transmit Delay
0 Defines the amount of time in 1 ms increments that elapses between when the 1747-DPS2 port splitter has a message to send and when it asserts the RTS signal (if handshaking is selected) or begins transmitting (if no handshaking is selected).
Control Line No handshaking This parameter defines the mode in which the driver operates.
Choose a method appropriate for your system’s configuration. If you are not using a modem, choose No Handshaking. If the master modem is full-duplex and the slave modem is half-duplex, choose Half-duplex With Continuous Carrier. If all of the modems in the system are half-duplex, choose Half-duplex Without Continuous Carrier.

Details of the Rockwell Automation Print Specifications sheet
This print specifications sheet is designed with multiple purposes. - It is a vehicle to get the most accurate print specifications to RA-approved print vendors. - It provides authors with an explanation of all necessary fields to complete before attaching the sheet to your PDF. - It provides separate tabs so that an author can fill in all fields related to the publication on the Generic tab or publication-specific template-type tabs to minimize the number of fields an author must complete. To facilitate the most efficient use of this sheet, we recommend that you click on the publication-specific tab that most closely fits you publication and use that to complete the print specifications. IMPORTANT: Because this sheet was constructed using a sheet that RR Donnelley (RRD) uses to load print specifications, there are some columns hidden. For example, the first field you must complete is Column E, or Publication Number. Columns A to D are used for RRD purposes and with information only representatives of that RA-approved printer can complete. DO NOT delete any hidden columns from the tab you choose to use.
