Running timed loop and while loop in parallel in real-time module.

[kj2shin]

Hello,

I have a question with running timed loop and while loop in parallel and whether while loop causes timed loop to slow down or not. I need to run timed loop at 1kHz for data acquisition and while loop for data processing that is separate from the data I get from 1kHz loop. Is there a way to structure the VI such that I can ensure 1kHz data sampling and data process on the side when the resource is available?

Thanks

The Timed Loop sets up as a top priority (time critical) thread.  The normal While loop will be at a normal priority.  So the Timed Loop will always take precedence.
