Question about <SamplingPeriod> #418

Closed rdiez closed 1 month ago

rdiez commented 12 months ago

I couldn't find much documentation about <SamplingPeriod> under <CoolingDevice>, in configuration file thermal-conf.xml .

Are the units in seconds? They could be milliseconds. I tried with values 1 and 5, and it made no noticeable difference.

Can you specify a floating point value like 0.5 ?

Do very low values make sense?

You can't specify in decimal point. They are seconds. This is the time, that device has noticeable affect after you change state.

First of all, thanks for your answer.

This is the time, that device has noticeable affect after you change state.

I do not understand what you mean. Could you rephrase that sentence?
