Time-triggered Network Page
Installed With: RT Module
From the network tree of the Network Configuration Dialog Box, click the top-level network node to display the Time-triggered Network page.
Use the Time-triggered Network page to configure settings that apply to the time-triggered network as a whole.
This page includes the following components:
- Network Speed—Specifies the speed of the deterministic network. The top speed of a time-triggered network is determined by the slowest speed of any target, switch, or hub in the network. The Network Configuration dialog box uses the Network Speed setting to calculate variable transmission times. LabVIEW returns an error at run time if the run-time speed of the network does not match the configured speed. You can choose from the following options:
- 100 MBit—Specifies a 100 Mbps network.
- 1 GBit—Specifies a 1,000 Mbps, or gigabit, network.
- Cycle Time(us)—Specifies the length of a cycle for the communication schedule in microseconds.
- Shared Memory Reflection Start Time (us)—Specifies the time when the first target node in the time-triggered network begins to transmit, or reflect, data from shared memory blocks.
- SMBs Transmission Time (us)—Displays a calculation of the total time required to transmit all of the data in the shared memory blocks for all target nodes of the time-triggered network.
