Hello!

I am developing real-time software for transputer nets. I would like 
to install two kinds of communication channels, a time-dependend 
for data exchange and a non-time-dependend type for configuration.
Both kinds of channels should support virtual routing to non-adjacent 
nodes. 

It seems that time-dependend communication is feasible using
the virtual routing features of the inmos toolsets IMS D7314 
resp. IMS D7305 due to the creation of high-priority processes. 

Is it possible to configurate the virtual routing software so that
low priority processes are created for the routing of particular
channels?

Yes, I read the manual. I wonder if there is any *undocumented*
switch in the software (something like 'z'-Options of the iserver :-).

Any hints are welcome.

Thank you in advance

Uwe
