Important: An inactive process does not execute on the control, and all
parameters assigned to it in the AMP editor will be ignored.
Use the Set Process Priority to execute your processes according to the rate
you prefer. You have four levels of priority to choose from:
If you choose: Then:
Unlimited The process executes as if its the only process on the
machine. The other process may not execute until this
process is complete.
High The process executes most often. This is the default
setting for both processes.
Medium The process executes less often than high priority but
more often than a low priority process.
Low The process executes least often of the two processes.
To Set Process Priority:
1. Press [F5] to pull down the F5-Process menu.
