There are several compile-time timeouts used by the LDM-5 system:

    Timeout on the downstream LDM establishing a connection to an
    upstream LDM;

    Timeout on an upstream LDM sending a product to a downstream LDM.

    Timeout on a downstream LDM waiting on a silent connection.

Do you know the timeout in which you're interested?
