Setting Background Initialization Rate
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
The Set Background Initialization Rate task changes the amount of system resources dedicated to the background initialization task.
The background initialization rate, congurable between 0% and 100%, represents the percentage of the system resources dedicated for
running the background initialization task. At 0%, the background initialization has the lowest priority for the controller, takes maximum time
to complete, and has the least impact to system performance. A background initialization rate of 0% does not mean that the background
initialization is stopped or paused.
At 100%, the background initialization is the highest priority for the controller. The background initialization time is minimized and has the
most impact to system performance.
To Change The Background Initialization Rate For A Controller
1 Type a numerical value in the Set New BGI Rate (0-100) eld. The value must be within the 0–100 range.
2 Click Apply Changes. To exit and cancel your changes, click Return to Previous Page.
