What are the Optional Timing Parameters on Initialize.VI for?

In modbus communications via the RS-485 bus, there are required delays between messages on the bus which are based on the serial baud rate. Sometimes it is desirable to insert additional delays to account for noise, slow settling, slow device response or other factors. The Optional Timing Parameters also include read more »
