CALL SCHEDULING SCRE

Call Scheduling Screen
Call Retry Strategy
If the
CNI2
attempts a call and the call is unsuccessful for any reason, it can try the call again at
a later time. It c
an also be told to retry the call to a different computer
or not retry the call at all
.
If many
CNI2
s are installed and programmed to call the same system around the same time
then it is likely that a few of the calls may fail due to network congestion
, or the data collection
system may not be configured to accept that many calls at once. To reduce the chance of
retries it is best to spread the call schedule out among all of the units.
Primary Call Retry Count
This is the number of times that the
CNI2
will try to repeat a call at the
Primary Call Retry
Interval
rate, which is a value between 1 and 255 minutes. Once a call is successful the retry
strategy is cancelled. But if the
Primary Retry Count
is exhausted then subsequent calls will be
at
tempted at the
Secondary Call Retry Interval
.
If the
Primary Retry Count
value is specified as 0 then
no
primary retry attempts are made and
the
CNI2
will go immediately to the
Secondary interval.
An overly
-
aggressive retry strategy will reduce battery life.
