Named Entity Recognition 25.4
Named Entity Recognition User and Programming Guide

# RequestTimeout

The maximum time to spend processing a single input file or document. You can specify the timeout in seconds and fractional seconds (for example 5.5 means five and a half seconds).

After it reaches the timeout, Named Entity Recognition stops processing and returns any results that were found. In most cases Named Entity Recognition does not reach the default timeout, but it can prevent Named Entity Recognition running for a long time with abnormal documents.

NOTE: When edktool reports settings, it returns values for the timeout in milliseconds. For example, if you set `RequestTimeout` to 4.5, it returns the timeout value as 4500.

NOTE: You can override the value of this parameter by using the associated Named Entity Recognition SDK functions, or by providing a configuration file fragment when you create the session.

Type: | Integer
Default: | 300
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | Eduction
Example: | `RequestTimeout=120`
