SilentMode
Specify if channel is active or silent
Description
Specify whether the channel operates silently. By default SilentMode is false. In this
mode, the channel both transmits and receives messages normally and performs other
tasks on the network such as acknowledging messages and creating error frames.
To observe all message activity on the network and perform analysis without affecting
the network state or behavior, change SilentMode to true. In this mode, you can only
receive messages and not transmit any.
