how to change asynchronous custom device Timed Loop rate?

Is there any way to change the default Timed Loop rate?

An old post said I can specify a decimation factor or something. But I think that is to change the iteration of PCL to read/write channel FIFO, not TimedLoop rate.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks.

In a custom device you can use Timed Loop or While Loop.

 

If you use while loop, you can use wait until function.

 

If you use a Timed Loop, a custom timing source is normally linked to the Timed Loop to configure it.

You can wire a constant if you want.

Caution : Timed Loop can cause Watchdog error so I davise you to check the box "filter watchdog error" on the system definition file configuration.
