(Pui) Set Push Interval; (Put) Set Push Threshold - Symetrix Composer v7.0 Manual

(PUI) Set Push Interval

This command changes the minimum length of time
between consecutive pushes of data. (See "How often is
data pushed?" above for more information.) At power-up,
this value defaults to 100 milliseconds. The syntax of the
command is:
PUI <MILLISECONDS><CR>
where <MILLISECONDS> is the push interval in
milliseconds, between 20 ms and 30,000 ms (30 seconds).
If the command is accepted, the unit will respond with the
string:
If the command is interpreted but fails for any reason the unit
will respond with the string:
While setting a short interval can speed up the push
response, it may have a negative impact on overall system
performance. The shorter the interval, the more time will be
spent looking for push data. This can slow down responses
to other RS-232 commands and Composer. Therefore,
we recommend using the longest interval that is practical,
especially if data is being pushed while Composer is on-line.
The default value of 100 milliseconds usually provides a
good compromise between prompt reports of changing data
and overall system performance.
Note that in cases where many controllers are changing
rapidly, the serial baud rate may ultimately limit the update
rate. Using the highest possible baud rate is recommended.

(PUT) Set Push Threshold

This command changes the push threshold value. Recall
that data is only pushed when it changes. The threshold is
the amount a value must change from the previous push
before it is pushed again. For example, if a controller value
was 10,000 and the threshold was 1,000, the data would
not be pushed again until the value rose to at least 11,000
or fell to 9,000 or below.
Units maintain two different thresholds: one for parameter
data such as faders and buttons, and another for meters
(including LEDs). These two thresholds can be set to the
same value or be different. It may be desirable to use a
fairly large threshold for meters to avoid constant pushing of
values. The power-on default for both of these values is 1.
The syntax of the command is:
PUT [<PARAMETER THRESH>] [<METER THRESH>]]<CR>
Where <PARAMETER THRESH> is the optional threshold
for parameters other than meters (e.g. faders and buttons)
and <METER THRESH> is the optional threshold for
meters. Both values must be between 0 and 65535. If
neither threshold is specified, both thresholds are set to the
default of 1. If only one threshold is specified, that value is
used for both the parameter and meter thresholds.
If the command is accepted, the unit will respond with the
string:
If the command is interpreted but fails for any reason the unit
will respond with the string:
Technical Note: The threshold is a "greater than or equal
to" type parameter, meaning it must be met (or exceeded)
to trigger a push. For example: if the threshold is 1 and the
last value pushed was 10,000, then a new value of 10,001
or 9,999 would cause a push to occur. A threshold of 0 acts
just like 1.
