Section 14. PakBus Networking
14-20
With CR800A positioned as shown above, LoggerNet will be able to connect
to CR800B through CR800A provided that CR800A and CR800B discover
one another. This will happen by setting up a neighbor filter in CR800A
listing CR800B’s PBA as an allowed neighbor.
If you insert an additional router into an RF4xx network
employing neighbor filters for discovery, both routers in each of
the two new links must list the other as an allowed neighbor or
they cannot become neighbors.
With RF4xx radios, an alternative method of discovery in the above case is to
set up router CR800A to beacon and thereby discover CR800B. CR800A
beacons would also discover LoggerNet (unnecessary because LoggerNet has
a static route to CR800A by virtue of its device map).
14.3.11 RF401 Series RF PakBus Protocols
PakBus Aware and PakBus Node protocols provide the notable advantage of
unique identifiers for each RF401 so there are low-level acknowledgements of
receipt of packets and automatic retries if RF packets fail. This is a big
advantage in cases of RF collision or noise.
14.4 Settings Editors
This table describes tools used to configure CR800 and communication
peripheral settings in PakBus networks.
Certain settings apply to specific CR800 ports such as SDC7.
