gas_prop
Purpose:
-
Compute and update gas properties based on input variables in a continuous manner.
Enter:
-
gas_prop <priority> <interval> <spec_file> [+c] &
Where:
-
priority
Specify the system task priority.
interval
Specify the time interval or rate the calculations should be made.
spec_file
Specify the specification file path.
+c
Optional. Specify this flag to indicate a critical task to the watchdog. The default is to leave the task non-critical.
Example:
-
gas_prop 12 1000 /specs/properties/prop_specs.319&
The above command sets the priority of the process to be 12 and performs the gas properties at the rate of once every second.The gas_prop task will register its name with the spec_file name (not the full pathame), in this case “prop_specs.319”. This name can be used by the ‘re-read’ command to request that it update the specifications by reading the specification file again. This feature allows the specifications to be changed “on-the-fly” without slaying and restarting the app.
Notes:
-
This process can be reconfigured by setting the re-read event to update specifications without restarting.
