Hi,
I'm new to both Linux and Midas and having trouble installing the programme -
the install file suggeats that I should have a directory:

Hello there,
I am working on a task that involves some ODB changes that happen within 20-500

I guess the simplest way to do that without breaking with existing code is to change the
second number to a float. So a

While I will do it, i'm not sure if this is what you want. If I understand correctly, some process gets triggered and then writes some values to the ODB,
then the sequencer
should continue. Putting a wait there is dangerous. Maybe your process always takes like 10-20 ms, so you put a wait of let's say 100ms, and things are |

Ok, I implemented the float second wait function. Internally it works in ms, so the maximum resolution is 0.001 s.
Best,

Indeed there was a sleep(100ms) in the sequencer in each loop. I reduced it now to 10ms. I need at least 10ms since otherwise
the sequencer would run in an infinite loop during the wait and burn 100% CPU. The smallest time slice on Linux to sleep is
10ms, so that's why I set it to that. Give it a try.

Actually I realized that a 1ms wait still works, so I reduced it to that.

Hi Stefan and Zaher,
there is a problem with the new sequencer interface for midas.
