Oh, this is another code's peculiarity. Reading/writing is done with:
conn.SetReadDeadline(time.Now().Add(DefaultDeadline * time.Second)),
where DefaultDeadline is 10 (seconds). So goroutine "ticks" every 10sec
by default and that is why lower onlinedeadline values are not checked
earlier. I will look how to easily change the logic of that.

>How to set -onlinedeadline for nncp-daemon?

Only through per-node onlinedeadline option in configuration file.
