When was the EISC2 released into the wild?
This relates back to the question asked a few days ago about
redundant signals on EISC's.
I'm not sure about during run time, however one of the key operational differences with the EISC2 is that it sends multiple statuses on startup.
I'm not sure if it sends a zero status then any non-zero values or sends every value using less traffic by putting multiple values per packet.
It makes a big difference when there are a lot of EISC's that need to come into sync between multiple processors.

I'm not privy to the complete inner workings but my understanding is that
the packed EISC will trap multiple changes and transmit them all as one
packet over TCP rather than generating a packet for each signal change.
This is imperceptible as far as programs are concerned but generates
magnitudes less TCP traffic.

You seem to have inside information Neil, are you saying that the EISC
will generate a single packet when multiple transitions occur on a single
logic wave, rather than a packet for every change?

There is no good reason to use the old (non-packed) symbol any longer.

Hmm. That sounds more efficient.
When would you use one vs. the other? Is there a reason why you
wouldn't want to always send multiple state changes in a single packet?
Does this only come into play when a program comes online and sends an
update request?

The regular one sends an ip packet for each join, the packed version
will send multiple joins in one ip packet.

What is the difference between the regular EISC and the "packed"
version? The help file for the "packed" version simply takes you to the
regular EISC definition, and there is no mention of the difference.
TIA
