The following application note demonstrates how to configure modules with a Force/Startup poll mapping.
Communications of I/O
from remote location back to the Base radio is done on a Change of State (COS) bases
as well as a regular update period. The default update period in the module is
set to 10 minutes, which can mean that if the inputs are not regularly changing the
Base radio may not get the most up to date status until it either receives a
change of state or receives one of the update messages.
If the Base radio is
restarted just after the remote input has updated, it may not get the next status
message for another 10 minutes. We can overcome this issue by setting up a “Force/Startup
mapping” which Initiates the values to be transfer on startup of the Base module.
