Effects User program Continues. Operation The DeviceNet Unit will stop remote I/O communications
and return errors for message send requests wherever
there is a transmission timeout. When the system returns
to normal status from the transmission timeout, the error
display will stop, remote I/O communications will start, and
message processing will return to normal. Remote I/O
communications will not start again after recovery to nor-
mal operation, however, if remote I/O communications are
set to stop when a communications error occurs.
