Teklogix 7035, 8255 & 8260 Terminals User Manual
Late Tx Limit
The value entered for this parameter (measured in milliseconds) sets the maximum
allowable deviation time from the start of a response window during which a
terminal can make a transmission. After this threshold, the transmission will
not be attempted and the terminal will try again at the next opportunity. For
example, suppose this parameter is set to 5. From the beginning of the response
window, the terminal can be up to 5 milliseconds late sending a transmission.
Beyond this threshold, the transmission is not attempted. The terminal waits for
the next opportunity.
D.3.4 Power Saving
Idle Poll Limit
This parameter determines how many transmit opportunities – base station polls
with available response windows – must be consecutively skipped for the
terminal to put the radio into power-down mode for power saving. Lower values
cause the terminal to go into power saving mode quickly, extending battery life
but reducing terminal responsiveness. Higher values increase responsiveness but
decrease battery life. “Idle Poll Limit” is only used when “Power Saving” is enabled
(set to “Y”).
Pwr Off Time
This parameter determines the amount of time (in seconds) the terminal will keep
the radio in power-down mode when a power down period has been initiated.
“Pwr Off Time” is only used when “Power Saving” is enabled (set to “Y”).
D.3.5 CIS Data
