- | + | If the executor has a small cycle time (less than 1 second) it is not advisable to update the log output each time. In the example the output is only updated after 1000 cycles. Depending on the cycle time, this number can be adjusted.\\ | |
- | ==== Explanation of the implementation ==== | + | Every periodic includes a periodic counter object. In case you simply define a time domain and add it to the executor its corresponding periodic object is created internally and you cannot access its periodic counter object. In such cases you manually create a periodic object and pass its time domain as a parameter. |
