Exactly. Adding TRANSFER_DELAY for out-packets is needless...

IEC 61883-6 said:
"If a function block receives a CIP, processes it and subsequently 
re-transmits it, then the SYT of the outgoing CIP shall be the sum of 
the incoming SYT and the processing delay."

So basically we need to add nothing to SYT for out-packet.
This patch should be removed.
