Parameters To change network parameters such as the Link Active Scheduler
(LAS) and primary time master, double-click the Network
Parameters icon in the Project window, or click the Link Masters
button in the Download Configuration window.

then select the Link Settings (Advanced) tab.
The specific parameters are displayed.
These paramters can be modified as required. Suggested values can
be viewed by clicking on the box above the parameters.
