IO.PhysicalLayerStatus |
This Tag indicates the status of a physical layer. Its possible values are the following:
•0: Physical layer stopped, that is, the Driver is in Offline mode, the physical layer failed when initializing, or exceeded the maximum number of reconnection attempts
•1: Physical layer started but not connected, that is, the Driver is in Online mode but the physical layer is not connected. If the Connection management option is configured as Automatic, the physical layer can be connecting, disconnecting, or waiting for a reconnection attempt. If the Connection management option is configured as Manual, then the physical layer remains in this status until forced to connect
•2: Physical layer connected, that is, the physical layer is ready for use. This DOES NOT mean the device is connected, only the access layer is working
