# Reading Other Parameters - nviReadParamNum, nvoReadParamNum
Two network variables are defined for reading any drive parameter:
nviReadParamNum - Specifies the parameter to be read.
nvoReadParamVal - Reports the value of the specified parameter.
Refer to the appropriate Technical Manual for a detailed description of all parameters.
Note: The increment listed in the user, programming, tecnical and parameter access manuals must be considered when interpreting a reported
value. For example, a read of b2-04, DC Injection Time at Stop, which reports 100 in nvoReadParamVal is actually a setting of 1.00
sec, since the increment for this parameter is 0.01 seconds.
# Configurable Network Traffic
This section describes the configuration properties available for customizing the drive’s periodic traffic on the network.
# Send Heartbeat - nciSndHrtBt
This configuration property defines the maximum period of time that expires before the current values of nvoDrvCurnt, nvoDrvSpeed,
nvoDrvVolt, and nvoDrvPwr are automatically transmitted. When enabled, this functionality is intended to indicate to the network that this node
is functioning normally. When disabled, the values of these variables are only transmitted upon change.
The default value for this configuration property is 0, which is the disabled state.
# Minimum Send Time - nciMinOutTm
This configuration property defines the minimum period of time between updates of output network variables. When enabled, this functionality
reduces network traffic by limiting the automatic propagation of network variables. When disabled, changes in these network variables are
transmitted on each change.
The default value for this configuration property is 1 second.
