4-4-2 Parallel Processing
This function is exclusively for an FH series/FZ5-800/1100/1200 series.
There are two types of processing in the Parallel processing: Automatic parallelization and Manual par-
allelization.
The automatic parallelization automatically parallelize a measurement flow if [Parallel Execute] under
[Operation mode setting] is turned ON.
The manual parallelization allows you to use the processing items for the parallel processings to freely
edit a measurement flow after automatic parallelization. If you use the manual parallelization to sepa-
rate a part of the measurement flow into multiple tasks and process each of these tasks in parallel
reduces the processing time of the measurements.
Parallel processing is available when [Parallel Execute] is set to ON in the [Operation mode setting].
If you turn ON [Parallel Execute] under [Operation mode setting], the automatic parallelization automat-
ically classify the type of processing items assigned to the measurement flow and parallelize the items
of the same classification.
Refer to the following for details on the processing items that are automatically parallelized.
Refer to Processing Items That Supports Automatic Parallelization on page 4-37.
It is possible to affect each of Operation mode when Parallel processing is ON. Please if needed, refer
to Refer to The effect of Parallel processing on the Operation mode on page 4-32.
