3.5.1 Setting the self healthy mode parameters
In the self healthy mode, the talker block of the node becomes scan healthy
even if an error occurs in the transmission path. In normal operation of the
TNB, all scan blocks become unhealthy if an error occurs in the transmission
path due to disconnection. If the TNB is set to the self healthy mode, the scan
healthy information of the talker block of the node stays in the state when an
error occurred in the transmission path.
To set the TNB to the self healthy mode, do the following.
In the parameter screen of the TNB, set the option switch to ON and
perform a download.
The following table shows the scan healthy information that is provided by
the TNB in the self healthy mode to the host controller.
