4. Use either Run Continuous Task (default) or Reserve for System Tasks.
– The Run Continue Task radio button is used when there is no
communication or background tasks to process; controller immediately
returns to the continuous task.
– The Reserve for System Task radio button allocates the entire 1 ms of
the system overhead time slice whether the controller has
communication or background tasks to perform before returning back
to the continuous task. This lets you simulate a communication load on
the controller during design and programming before HMIs, controller
to controller messaging, and so forth, are set up.
