6.5.3 Setting the Auto Detect Retry Times
The Auto Detect Retry Times indicates how many times the terminal will attempt a
communications protocol before trying the next one on the list. For example, if it is set to 3,
when the terminal starts up, it will try 3 times to connect to the HOST in USB mode. If it fails,
then it will try 3 times to connect to the HOST in RS485 mode. If it fails, then it will try 3 times
to connect to the host in Tailgate mode. If it fails, then it will decide that COM1 is working in
RS232 mode. Therefore, the less retry times, the less amount of time it will take to auto-detect
the communications type.
