  Keep Alive Keep Alive

  Keep Alive
  • The maximum interval in seconds (5-65,535) between any two MQTT protocol control packets sent by the client to the server.
  • The minimum Keep Alive for MQTT Transmission is 5.
  • If the client is idle and has no control packets to send, it will send PINGREQ protocol packet and the server is required to respond with a PINGRESP packet. If no response is received from the server within 1.5 times the Keep Alive, the client will close the connection.

  • If the server does not receive, at minimum, a PINGREQ message from a client within 1.5 times the Keep Alive, it will terminate the connection and send the client's LWT if it has been defined.

  • For MQTT Transmission, this is an DEATH message.

• Random Startup Delay
  • The Random Startup Delay in milliseconds of the form 'min-max' where min is the low end and max is the high end of the random range. e.g. '10-1000'. 
• Reconnect Delay
  • The clients reconnect delay in millisecond.
• Subscribe to Legacy STATE Topic
  
  • Allow the Transmission Client to subscribe to a legacy state topic (eg. STATE/IamHost) for primary host ID notifications (available from release 4.0.16)
  • Review Changes to the STATE messages in the Sparkplug v3.0.0 Specification
• Data Format Type
  • The format of the data to send. Default is Sparkplug_B_v1_0_Protobuf with JSON as an option.
