Timer-Interrupt (P-RTCF-00003)

P-RTCF-00003

Timer-interrupt time distance of the real-time operating system

Description

The timer-interrupt time distance of the real-time operating system should be clearly less than the NC cycle time (e.g. by a factor of 3 to 20) However, an error is generated only if the ratio is less than 1.

The internal time can be set with VxWorks and RTX operating systems.

Parameter

time_slice

Data type

UNS32

Data range

0 < time_slice < MAX(UNS32)

Dimension

µs

Default value

-

Remarks

The following applies to RTX: in the Initialisation menu (RTX Properties Register Setting) of RTX, the HAL timer period must match the value of time_slice, otherwise an error message is output.
