It includes memory used for PakBus routing and neighbor lists, communication timeout structures, and TCP/IP connection structures. The PakBusNodes setting, which defaults to 50, is included in CommsMemFree(2). Doubling PakBusNodes to 100 doubles CommsMemFree(2) from ≈300 to ≈600 (assuming a large PakBus network has not been just discovered). The larger the discovered PakBus network, and the larger the number of simultaneous TCP connections, the smaller CommsMemFree(2) number will be. A PakBusNodes setting of 50 is normally enough, and can probably be reduced in small networks to free memory, if needed. Reducing PakBusNodes by one frees 224 bytes. If CommsMemFree(2) drops and stays down for no apparent reason (a very rare occurrence), please contact a Campbell Scientific applications engineer since the CR800 operating system may need adjustment. 10.4.3.3 CommsMemFree(3) CommsMemFree(3) Specifies three two-digit fields, from right (least significant) to left (most significant): • lilfreeq = "little" IP packets available • bigfreeq = "big" IP packets available • rcvdq = IP packets in the received queue (not yet processed) At start up, with no TCP/IP communication occurring, this field will read 1530, which is interpreted as 30 lilfreeq and 15 bigfreeq available, with no packets in rcvdq.

10.4.3.2 CommsMemFree(2)
CommsMemFree(2)
displays the number of memory "chunks" in
"keep" memory
(p. 435)
used by communications.
It includes memory used for PakBus routing and
neighbor lists, communication timeout structures, and TCP/IP connection
structures.
The
PakBusNodes
setting, which defaults to
50
, is included in
CommsMemFree(2)
.
Doubling
PakBusNodes
to
100
doubles
CommsMemFree(2)
from
300 to
600 (assuming a large PakBus network has
not been just discovered).
The larger the discovered PakBus network, and the
larger the number of simultaneous TCP connections, the smaller
CommsMemFree(2)
number will be.
A
PakBusNodes
setting of 50 is normally
enough, and can probably be reduced in small networks to free memory, if
needed.
Reducing
PakBusNodes
by one frees 224 bytes.
If
CommsMemFree(2)
drops and stays down for no apparent reason (a very rare
occurrence), please contact a Campbell Scientific applications engineer since the
CR800 operating system may need adjustment.
10.4.3.3 CommsMemFree(3)
CommsMemFree(3)
Specifies three two-digit fields, from right (least
significant) to left (most significant):
lilfreeq
= "little" IP packets available
bigfreeq
= "big" IP packets available
rcvdq
= IP packets in the received queue (not yet processed)
At start up, with no TCP/IP communication occurring, this field will read 1530,
which is interpreted as 30
lilfreeq
and 15
bigfreeq
available, with no packets in
rcvdq
.
The Ethernet and/or the PPP interface feed

If
CommsMemFree(3)
has a reading of 21428, then two packets are in the received
