Alan,
The way I understood the manual, Comms is part of Overhead. Overhead does not interrupt a Periodic task. Overhead will run when there are no other tasks to run (in a program with no continuous task). In a program with a continuous task, Overhead will run based on Time Slice Percentage. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm working a project right now where I can't decide if I should use the continuous task or setup all periodic tasks. So finding out exactly when this stuff runs would help a lot.
