1. Definition of terms:
steady - indicator is on continuously in the defined state.
alternating - the two indicators alternate between the two defined states at the same time (applies to 
both indicators 
viewed together); the two indicators are always in opposite states, out of phase.
flashing - the indicator alternates between the two defined states (applies to each indicator
viewed
independent of the other); if both indicators are flashing, they flash together, in phase.
2. SMAX is the highest node address on a ControlNet network that can transmit scheduled data.
