Solutions
There are multiple versions of this error. Please see the dropdowns below for information.
Cause
INtime has a problem that prevents the INtime kernel from starting.
Solution
1) If you installed 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. Then restart the PC and re-pass the FireWire/HyperWire card to INtime.
- For FireWire cards, Pass to INtime using Polling
- For HyperWire cards, Pass to INtime using MSI
3) Uninstall both A3200 and INtime (INtime is installed as a separate program). Reinstall A3200, therefore reinstalling INtime.
4) Open the INtime Configuration program. Go to the Node Management icon and make the following changes. Then save and restart the PC.
Select AerotechNode0 at left, and go to the Kernel tab. Set "Start automatically" to Yes
Go to the System tab. Set "Boot Mode" to Dedicated
5) Open A3200 Configuration Manager. Co to Controller > Connection Settings (toolbar dropdown). In the Advanced tab, set the "Start A3200" option to Automatically. Click Apply and OK. Restart the PC.
6) Optimize the PC. This can be done by following the User Guide For Optimizing Performance found on our website. This includes a range of Windows and BIOS settings.
- 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.
