Worked Example

Verified calculation

Given:

  • Safety Margin Offset = 0.02
  • Network Propagation Delay = 0.012
  • Controller Processing Time = 0.006
  • PSD Mechanical Response Factor = 0.1

Expected Result:

  • Synchronization Latency = 0.0398

Engineering Interpretation:

Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Synchronization Latency = 0.0398 s.

The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from automatically validated test cases.
