Background Queued/Status Message Collection Policy

This parameter is used to set a Background Collection Policy for managing collection of Queued messages from an RDM device on an E1.20 network. Background collection policies are a flexible framework for Splitters, Proxies, and RDMnet Gateways to implement different configuration policies for collection of Queued and Status Messages from RDM Devices. Possible collection strategies might include more frequent collection of higher priority messages, or overall higher or lower collection frequencies.

Endpoint Label

This parameter provides a means of setting a descriptive label for each Endpoint on a device. This may be used to specify the purpose of that Endpoint or the origination source for the data.

Endpoint Responder List Change

This parameter returns a unique List Change Number as a means for Controllers to identify if the Endpoint Responder List has changed.

Background Discovery

This parameter is used to enable/disable background E1.20 RDM discovery for an Endpoint. Background Discovery is an ongoing autonomous discovery routine running on a device that periodically discovers additional RDM Responders as they come online. The background discovery process may also include the periodic unmuting of all RDM Responders and re - muting all known RDM Responders before performing an incremental discovery to ensure all connected RDM Responders are properly discovered regardless of their previous connection state. The frequency that Background Discovery operates at is up to the implementer and may vary based on the amount of other traffic.

Endpoint Responders

This parameter returns a packed list of responder UIDs associated with a given Endpoint ID number.

Binding and Control Fields

This parameter allows a Controller to retrieve the Binding UID and Control Field information that is sent as part of the Discovery Mute(Disc Mute) message. This allows an RDMnet Device to retrieve these fields that are not otherwise available within RDMnet. The Disc Mute message is disallowed within RDMnet.

Background Queued/Status Message Policy Description

This parameter is used to get a descriptive ASCII text label for a given Background Collection Policy Number. The label may be up to 32 characters.

Endpoint Timing

This parameter is used to get and set the timing profile on Endpoints that support selecting different timing and refresh profiles.

Client Search Domain

This parameter is used to read and modify the DNS search domain name configuration used by Clients when locating a Broker.

Component Scope

This parameter is used to read and modify the Scopes and static Broker configurations of a Component. Each Component that supports this parameter maintain a Scope List, numbered sequentially, starting with one (0x0001). Devices and Brokers only support a single Scope and, thus, only have a single - element list. Controllers support multiple Scopes and thus have multiple elements in the Scope List.
