You can set an I/O driver's message rate to fine-tine your driver's configuration. To do this, click the Period button and enter a driver period. Follow these guidelines for setting the driver period:
- Enter a value from 1 through 100 in the field. The timer cycle ranges from 1/100 to 100/100 of a second. The default is 5.
- Enter 1 to get the fastest message time (100 messages per second).
- Enter 5 to get a slower message time (20 messages per second).
The driver period can also be specified in the Command Line of the Task Configuration dialog box. Refer to the Configuring Startup Tasks section for more information.
CAUTION: Speeding up the message rate can adversely affect the overall performance of your system, including SAC.
