To calculate Tdm-nbt throughput, substitute values for the variables in
the formula above. Locate these values in the following documents:
RIO Scan Time Calculation (TRIO)
The RIO scan time is calculated by identifying the baud rate and
image size of
each
logical device on the RIO link. Locate the
corresponding time value in the following table. If you are using
multiple logical devices, add the time values together to determine the
total RIO scan time (TRIO).
