ROBAR-SV processes requests asynchronously and in parallel (multiprocessing). A ROBAR-SV instance can simultaneously process up to 10 requests per robot. The parallel processing of requests improves the response time if the current processing operation cannot be continued until a specific event occurs.
The following cases are an example of this:
A cartridge is unloaded (message
NKVT097
) but still has to be rewound before it can be removed from the MTC device.A cartridge is unloaded because of an error but still must be rewound. However, the rewind operation takes longer than usual due to the error.
The device must be cleaned before use.
The parallel processing of requests also permits the definition of longer waiting times without interruption to the robot processing operation.
You can determine the optimum settings (see "Multiprocessing") by observing the behavior of the robot.
