Packetization Time (RO) Settings!!!

Can someone explain the function of setting RO and why is the default set to “3”. For example, if RO=3 and packet size= 50bytes every 100ms, does that means 3 character times equivalent to inserting 300ms inter-channel delay before transmission?

Is the RO=3 good for a 50bytes every 100ms transmission? or I need to increase RO? Please advise.

Thank you.

We did have a previous topic on this, http://www.digi.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,423#1683
It looks as though my reply wasn’t helpful enough (which I can perfectly well believe), but could you maybe expand on the question in the light of that reply? If you can, I’d be very willing to have another go.
