Catching Ignored Messages
To assist you catch and monitor ignored messages the driver provides a special map descriptor
keyword.
Make a map descriptor and set the parameter AM6000_TypeID 's value to Catch-All. Make sure
that this is the last map descriptor in the csv file. The map descriptor requires a data length of at
least 82 and when using RUI_Debug you should view the data array in <S>tring mode.
The driver will place any ignored messages in this buffer. You will be able to read the message in
<S>tring mode an make a decision on the necessary corrective action. If there are multiple
messages being ignored the buffer will be overwritten.
You could use your PLC / control device / Scada to monitor the first byte of this data array and
generate an alarm if the value is non-zero. Thus, even though a message has been ignored you
system will know about it.
