If preacts are required, the host device should be used as the controller for its own I/O. Rice Lake does not recommend the use of iQUBE2 (local) I/O with host device controlled setpoints using the preact functions as variances in the reaction time in serially controlled I/O can dramatically affect the preact algorithm. -
