Offline mode is used to define what data to send if the network connection or connection with a specific node is lost.

You must specify the offline mode to use for each transaction on the I/O data map.

Select one of the following Offline options:

  • Clear (Default): The data is cleared and the value 0 is sent.

  • Freeze: The Communicator holds the value until the connection is restored.

  • No scanning: Stop sending this transaction on the sub-network. This option is only valid for produce and request transactions.
