Configure the initialization timeout

When the sequencer starts up, fails over, or loads or updates a new sequence program, its execution state is set to Initializing to allow the sequencer to connect to its input and output references.

In certain cases, for example when the Sequencer Object is put offscan during initialization, the Sequencer Object may be stuck in this state. You can configure the Initialization Timeout value to tell the object to go into a StoppedError state after a certain time period has elapsed.

To configure the Initialization Timeout

1. Select the Settings tab. The Settings panel appears.

2. In the Initialization Timeout text field, enter a value for the time period in milliseconds you want to pass before the Sequencer object goes into StoppedError state after initializing.

   

   Note: The default value for the initialization timeout is 30000 ms (30 seconds).
