Worker Pool (bacnet-BacnetWorkerPool)

This component in the bacnet palette may improve messaging performance in cases where BACnet-queue-full messages have occurred. Between the two Bacnet Comm > Server workers, typically the Confirmed Worker benefits most from adding a Worker Pool.

You can paste a Worker Pool component from the bacnet palette as a child under a Worker.

To access this property (Max Threads) for a WorkerPool, drag or copy a WorkerPool from the bacnet palette (WorkerPools node) to BacnetNetwork > Bacnet Comm > Server > Worker.

 NOTE: BacnetWorker COV Worker does not support a Worker Pool child. An error results if you attempt to add one under it. 
Property Value Description
Max Threads text (defaults to 2) Specifies the maximum number of threads in the worker pool. Often this is sufficient, but may be increased if necessary. However, large numbers may prove to be detrimental, especially if a controller platform with limited resources.
