A read or write of a drive parameter by the Unidrive M onboard program takes a finite period of time. It is possible to select up to 10 parameters as fast access parameter which reduced the amount of time it takes for the Unidrive M onboard program to read from or write to a drive parameter. This is useful when using a Clock task with a fast update rate as selecting a parameter for fast access reduces the amount of the Clock task resource required to access parameters.
