# Threads

The TREP Adapter can open multiple channels to RTDS, each on a separate thread. This is controlled with the configuration options `max-threads` and `max-thread-objects`.

## max-threads

**Type**: Integer

**Default**: 1

**Valid values**: 1–64 (inclusive)

Maximum number of threads to handle data from RTDS.

## max-thread-objects

**Type**: Integer

**Default**: 1500

This sets the maximum number of objects that will be subscribed to on a single thread (and therefore RTDS channel). Note that if `max-threads` and `max-thread-objects` are both reached, it is the `max-thread-objects` limit which is broken.
