Real Time Machine
The Real Time Machine tab of the Preferences dialog box is used to specify IP Addresses and other system settings. · Scheduler Gateway IP Address--specifies the IP Address of the CNX Gateway computer for the Real-Time Engine. This IP Address may or may not be the same as that of the Web Server. (See Web Server Gateway IP Address, below. ) Web Server Gateway IP Address--specifies the IP Address of the CNX Gateway computer for the Web Server. Check for scheduled events every `n' seconds--configures the Real-Time Engine to check for scheduled events at the specified interval. Crestron recommends the default setting. (See NOTE, below. )
· ·
NOTE: Crestron recommends using the default settings for periodic system checks, as lengthening or shortening the time interval may adversely affect system response.

Connections
The Current Connections area of the Connections tab lists the IP Addresses of all hardware devices that are configured to run with the RealTime Engine. Each field also displays the connection status and CNX Gateway connection handle, for debugging purposes. Check for new connections every `n' seconds--since set-top boxes and browsers are likely to be dynamically connected and disconnected to the system at any time, the Real-Time Engine will continuously poll all hardware at the specified interval, to make sure a connection is active and valid. (See NOTE, below. )
NOTE: Crestron recommends using the default settings for periodic system checks, as lengthening or shortening the time interval may adversely affect system response.

Diagnostic Utilities
The Configuration menu of the Real-Time Engine application window includes two options for debugging, Watch Signals and Configuration.
Watch Signals
The Watch Signals window displays information about all the signals that the Real-Time Engine receives and transmits. As stated previously, all signals are defined as either input to the Scheduler or output from the Scheduler, and this is specified in the I/O field. The IO Type field gives the type of signal--digital, analog or serial. The Value field gives the value that was sent. Command Type lists the type of target location for the command. This should match the Which CNX field that displays the CNX Interface. Handle lists the CNX Gateway connection handle. The Watch Signals window also gives the join number and description of all commands.
NOTE: The "Watch Signals" window should only be used for debugging, since the system slows down dramatically when this window is open.
