Can the unit of Task time slice be changed?

[george]

Hi all,

I'm using MQX 3.8.1 on TWR-K60N512.

And, the scheduling of MQX Task uses Round robin.

I want to set the Time slice of Tasks to 100uSec.

Is the setting possible?

If possible, please tell me the way.

Best regards,

George

u can set it by changing the Task Templete. Please refer 3.2.20 in MQXRM pdf or 3.2.2 in MQXUG.pdf.

location would be C:\Program Files\Freescale\Freescale MQX 3.8\doc\mqx

ex:

{INIT_TASK,        init_Task,

800,   9,  "initTask",  MQX_AUTO_START_TASK, 0, 100},

the bold on will change the time slice of task.

Hi Katre,

In my understanding, The default time unit of slice is milliseconds.

I want to set time slice fewer than the minimum which can set it.

Plase tell me how to change to microsec from millisec.

Best Regards,

George

Hello,

the default time slice unit is number of ticks. Ticks are set by the frequency of the system timer in the <board>.h file.

Thanks Juraj, George i to agree with him, as per my knowledge....the time setting works on ticks so u can make it to microsec....u need to do some calculation to get ur desired number

Thanks Juraj and Swapnil,

Is the parameter which you say the following?

  #ifndef BSP_ALARM_FREQUENCY

      #define BSP_ALARM_FREQUENCY             (200)

  #endif

Is my understanding correct?

Best Regards,

Yes, that's the parameter.
