Overview The RS2 updates its measurements every 5 seconds. Like all external sensors, the RS2’s measurements are read by the host every 10 to 30 seconds, depending on the number of other sensors connected. Sensor data collected by the RS2 gives useful trend analysis data, and allows users to view changes and draw useful conclusions about what is happening over time in the monitored environment. -
