Unlimited Retries
When this box is checked, the central
console continues trying to send
commands to a transponder even if the
commands are not being acknowledged.
(Normally, the central console would
cease after six retries and declare a
communication failure.) When this
screen is closed, the system reverts to
the normal six retries.

Screen
This screen, accessible from the Main

Total Alarms Received
The total number of alarm messages
received by the central console from
this transponder since the data was
last reset (using the Reset Transponder
Troubles button).
Total Tests Received
The total number of test messages
received by the central console from
this transponder since the data was
last reset (using the Reset Transponder
Troubles button).
Total Troubles Processed
The total number of trouble messages
received by the central console from
the transponder and processed (see
Total Troubles Shed) since the data was
last reset (using the Reset Transponder
Troubles button).
Total Troubles Shed
During certain rare occurrences, the
communication traffic on the
transponder links becomes excessive and
threatens to increase the system
response time to tests and alarms. This
can happen if faults are reported at a
very high rate. To avoid slow response
in such situations, the central console
may go into a load shedding mode in
which it ceases to record and display
Trouble Reports until the
communications traffic subsides. The
Total Troubles Shed box indicates the
number of trouble messages that were
not processed since the last reset
(using Reset Transponder Troubles
button).
