Time-out and other errors
You require the telegram runtimes in order to set the telegram monitoring. The character
runtime is the basis of the telegram runtime:
Table 5- 8 Character runtime
Transmission time per bit
Character run time (= 11 bits)
19200 52.084 µs 0.573 ms
57600 17.361 µs 0.191 ms
The telegram runtime is longer than just purely adding all of the character runtimes
(=residual runtime). You must also take into consideration the character delay time between
the individual characters of the telegram.
Figure 5-8 Telegram runtime as the sum of the residual runtime and character delay times
The total telegram runtime is always less than 150% of the pure residual runtime.
Before each request telegram, the master must maintain the start delay. The start delay
must be > 2 × character runtime.
The slave only responds after the response delay has expired.
