Test Interval

First, configure the interval for autotesting, and a register where this interval should be stored.

'

On this screen, enter:

Period	Specify an autotest interval of 1 to 65535 minutes. This becomes the time
	interval the system will wait between autotests of the I/O subsystem.

Register Specify a %R register. When the system is started and goes through initialization, this register is initialized to the period configured (above). The GMR system reads this register to determine the autotest interval. The contents of this register can be modified by the application program or changed using the Logicmaster programming software to alter the autotest interval (if desired) without reconfiguring the system.

See the Programming chapter for information about %R memory usage in a GMR system.

When you have completed this screen, select OK to return to the System screen.

Exiting the Window

When you select OK, your entries are saved and the window disappears. If you want to exit the window and reset all fields to their previous content, select Close or Cancel instead.
