Timeout (Conditional Branch)
Set the conditions under which the branching processing times out.
1 In the Item Tab area, click [Timeout].
2 In the "Timeout" area, specify a value
for each item.
• Parameters for units that do not pass through a conditional branch
The measurement results other than the unit judgement result (JG)
retain the measurement results from the
previous time the unit passed through the conditional branch. The JG for units that do not pass through the
condition branch becomes unmeasured (0). Note, however, that the unit JG becomes unmeasured at the point in
time when all the measurement processing ends. During flow processing, the previous time judgement (JG) is
retained.

Description
Use timeout
• Unchecked
• [Checked]
Click on the [Use timeout] checkb
ox to turn it ON if you
want the branching processing to time out after a set
amount of time passes.
Setting time 1 to 3600 [60]
This can be set when the "Use timeout" checkbox is
selected.
Set the length of time until the measurement process
times out on the selected
processing unit in seconds.
Wh
en the measurement process for this processing unit
is executed
, a ti
meout occurs once the amount of time
that passes since the start of the measurement exceeds
the set [Setting time]. If a timeout occurs to disrupt the
measurement process, the judgement results in NG.
• Normally the “Use timeout” check box should be selected. Unche
cking the [Use ti
meout] checkbox may cause the
measurement flow to become stuck in an infinite loop when measurements are started depending on the
branching processing settings.
• If using conditional branching within the block for the paralleli
zation task in the measurement flow, set it up so that
branching occurs only within the relevant block for the parallelization task. Attempting to introduce branching
across blocks for the parallelization task may cause the timout function to stop working even with the [Use
timeout] checkbox checked.
