Tutorial: configure communication cycle

For something interesting to happen, you need to configure the communication cycle.

The duration of the Minislots and the NIT (Network Idle Time) can be modified, but this does only affect the display of the simulation, not its functionality.

As soon as the dynamic segment contains at least one Minislot, the nodes will expand their display:

It shows a progress bar for the message transmission in the dynamic segment. The number in the progress bar gives the number of the transmitted messages of the node in the dynamic segment.


Now set the number of Minislots in the dynamic segment to 3, please.
