Description

Starts an RT program at a specific time. The time is given in basic time units. A basic time unit is 1/50th of a second. The RT program is moved from the time queue to the execution queue at the specified time.

  • It may already be later than the time specified. The RT program is then scheduled for the next day.
  • The RT program may already be in the time queue. It is then reinserted according to the new time specifications.
  • AdjustClock and @CLADJ affect the startup. The RT program starts according to the new time.
  • Use GetBasicTime to read the internal time in basic time units.

Parameters
