Unit Update Rate
Clicking on the update item will select the item, changing the background of the selected item to light
blue. Selecting the update item and clicking Edit will display the Number Edit screen.
The Unit Update Rate is the number of seconds between updates and defines how often the Master
Unit communicates with Remote Units to gather status information. Changing the Unit Update Rate
to a shorter time means the status of units is checked more often. Care should be taken to not set
this rate too low, as it could delay the operation of stations being turned on or off. A value of 10
seconds is considered an absolute minimum without severely impacting station operations.
Unit Module Status
This area displays the current status of the unit expansion modules.
Unit Communication Method
Clicking on the Comms item will select the item, changing the background of the selected item to
light blue. Selecting an item and then clicking Edit will display the Control Select screen to allow
