Timer

The following properties are used to define time-controlled activities of the program (i.e., the execution times and execution intervals of the worker instances).

Property

Description

Timer.Worker

Global definition of execution times for all worker instances of type "Input," "Processing," or "Output," if no individual Worker[].Timer is defined

Default value: 30s

Syntax: see .Timer under Miscellaneous

Timer.Backup

Timer.BatchUpdate

Definition of execution times for all worker instances of the type "Backup" or "BatchUpdate"

Default values: 30s and 5s, respectively

The values apply to all worker instances of the respective type.

Timer.SleepPeriod

Definition of a global time interval in which the worker instances should be inactive, even if the timer of these instances falls into this time period (optional)

Alternatively, an individual interval can be defined for instances of type "Input," "Process," and "Output" (see Worker[].SleepPeriod). However, this global value is used for the "Backup" and "BatchUpdate" types and for the execution of global tasks by a scheduler instance.

Syntax: see .***Period under Miscellaneous
