This is a rolling average calculated for the lastten messages. There are two return times for dual-channel communications modules.The UNRETURNED MSG COUNT values (one per communications channel) count the direct output messages that do notmake the trip around the communications ring. The CRC FAIL COUNT values (one per communications channel) count thedirect output messages that have been received but fail the CRC check. High values for either of these counts may indicateon a problem with wiring, the communication channel, or one or more relays.
