Appendix E
System Performance Tuning Guidelines
The amount of personal computer processing power required for your
application depends on your control application configuration. For example, the
number of tasks, periodic rate settings, number of data tags, and whether other
windows applications are running on your computer. This appendix describes the
effect of these items and provides some guidelines on how to maximize
system performance.
The CPU speed of the personal computer and whether the system is a single or
dual Pentium are also important. The developer of the soft control system must
partition and scale the application correctly for the capabilities of the
personal computer.
Pre-qualify Your Personal
Computer for Soft Control
After installing the SoftLogix 5800 controller on your personal computer, verify
that the system performance is appropriate for soft control. This is not usually an
anomaly on computers pre-configured and supplied by major vendors.
Run the TestTime utility that is installed with the SoftLogix 5800 controller. Let
this application run for a period of time while you perform tasks that you
normally run on the computer. When minimized, the utility monitors your
system in the background.
