Lag when switching between Manual Control and MDI

So I have something going on that's a bit concerning.

When I switch between MDI and Manual control, via the tabs in AXIS, there is a lag. This lag is new and it came recently as I've gotten this machine closer to being configured. The lag is substantial, too. It can be up to about 20 seconds before the tab actually changes from one tab to the next.

There is also a lag when the coolant box is checked. Sometimes the box doesn't even check!

Is there something I should be looking for to stop this? It could be a problem, for sure.

Thanks in advance,

Scot

If you have the basethread or servo thread set too short, it can cause all of the userspace programs to grind to a halt, for lack of processor time. What do you have them set to?

When I tuned the servos I remember the thread being 1000, if I'm correct. But I'm unsure where to find that setting, either way.

Any pointers?

I just dug around and found that setting.

If this is the line, then that's the setting:

# Servo task period, in nanoseconds
SERVO_PERIOD = 1000000

That should be fine. Do you have a base-thread?
What hardware do you have?

I don't see a reference to a base thread in the .ini file. And I'm using Pico-systems PWM board and brushless servos/amps.
