CauseINtime has a problem that prevents the INtime node kernel from starting. Most This is commonly this can be attributed to some INtime specific settings or PC incompatibilities with INtime's RTOS (Real-Time Operating System). Examples include camera or Windows or BIOS settings that affect real time performance, camera/imaging software that utilize some type of utilizes an imaging/capture card installed on the computer, high end graphics cards, etc. Solution1) If you installed - Reinstall the A3200 and
you did not restart your PC, restart your PC before you use the A3200.2) Pass the FireWire/HyperWire card back to Windows control- INtime. Refer to the procedure that follows.
- Uninstall the A3200. Then restart the PC.
- Uninstall INtime. Then restart the PC.
- Install the A3200. Then restart the PC
and re-pass - . The installation automatically installs and configures INtime again.
- Pass the FireWire/
HyperWire - HyperWIre card to Windows control, then back to INtime control.
For FireWire cards, - Open INtime Configuration
- Double click on INtime Device Manager

3) Uninstall both A3200 and INtime (INtime is installed as a separate program). Reinstall A3200, therefore reinstalling INtime. 4)
- Optimize the PC. This can be done by following the
User Guide For - Optimizing A3200 Performance
found - guide on our website. This includes a
wide range - Specifically, try disabling Hyperthreading and/or Virtualization
- Optimization may help, however, if there are programs such as Cognex imaging software that use capture cards installed on the PC, Optimization may have no effect. These cards and software should be uninstalled to troubleshoot where the INtime Node errors come from.Note: Not all PC configurations will be able to run the INtime RTOS software (Real-Time Operating System) very well. If optimization does not work, there may be something about the PC's hardware, such as the CPU, that does not work well with Real-Time Operating Systems.
5) - list of Windows and BIOS settings
.- that are known to negatively affect real time performance.
- Note that not all PCs are compatible with A3200's real-time operating system. A list of supported PCs can be found here. Known problematic PC models are listed here. If optimization does not resolve the INtime error it may be that the PC model is simply not compatible with INtime, A3200's real time operating system. If this is the case, obtain a supported PC.
- If the above troubleshooting steps (including optimization) do not help to resolve this error, double check that the PC was thoroughly optimized.
- Review the User Guide for Windows 10 Updates found on the Aerotech website.
- In the event that these errors occurred shortly after a Windows update, you should review this guide
. Unfortunately, as of right now(August 2019) you cannot fully disable Windows 10 Updates on some versions of Windows 10- . This guide has a few steps and suggestions that can be taken if errors start to appear after you updated Windows 10.
6) - Upgrade
the - A3200
software - to
the newest version or upgrade to at least v6- version 6.03.003 or newer for newer PC models.
As mentioned under solution #4, not all PCs are very compatible with the INtime software. This is seen largely with the release of newer computers where the older version of INtime (used for -
- A3200 versions 6.02
.001 and lower) - and earlier install INtime version 6.2, which does not run reliably on newer computer models.
With the release of A3200 v6- A3200 version 6.03.003
a newer version of INtime was used. This newer version of INtime that released with A3200 v6.03.003 - uses INtime 6.3 and has been known to resolve this INtime
Node - node error on a few post-2017
PCs("newer PCs")- PC models.
7) - Change INtime Node settings.
- Open
the - INtime Configuration
program. Go to the - Double click to open Node Management
icon - and make the following changes. Then save and restart the PC.
