convert3_2.conv
These variables receive their initial values from the Project domain configuration on project/
layout install. After installation these parameters can be modified by passing parameters to
the NAME command as shown below:
NAME FEDERATION <NewFederationName>
NAME FEDERATE <NewFederateName>
NAME FEDFILE <NewFedFileName>
NAME RIDFILE <NewRidFileName>
NAME CONVERT <NewConvertFileName>
Note: The file name parameters must specify the file name only and the file must exist in the
hla sub-directory of the currently installed T4 project domain. It is not necessary to enter the
full path.
QUIT
This command can be entered at any time to terminate the HLA federate application. If
joined, the Target federate will resign before exiting.
RESIGN
This command can be entered at any time in order to leave the current federation. To join a
different federation, it is not necessary to resign. Issuing a new
JOIN
command will cause the
Target federate to resign from its current federation before attempting to join the new one. If
the Target federate is instructed to join a federation it is already joined to, it will resign and re-
join that federation. The response is “
RESIGN OK
” or “
RESIGN FAIL
”. If the federate is
not joined to a federation, no action is taken and the federate will respond “
RESIGN OK
”.
STATS
This command prints performance statistics. A sample output is shown here:
ScanListTime : n = 94 Min = 0.000013 Max = 0.000122 Avg = 0.000051
TickTime : n = 6058 Min = 0.000008 Max = 0.001606 Avg = 0.000014
The
ScanListTime
statistics reflect the number of times the federate software scans the
current list of transmitters and receivers, the minimum list scan time, the maximum list scan
time, and the average list scan time.
The
TickTime
statistics reflect the number of times the RTI
tick()
function is called, and
the minimum, maximum, and average durations of time that are spent within a
tick()
call.
STATUS
This command returns either “
JOINED
”, “
RESIGNED
”, or “
READY
.”
