Poll Interval

This parameter specifies the minimum frequency at which the module should
execute the command. The value is entered in units of seconds. For example, to
execute a command every 10 seconds, enter a value of 10 in the field. A value of
0 for the parameter implies that the command should be executed every scan of
the list.

Uploading and Downloading the Configuration File

ProSoft modules are shipped with a pre-loaded configuration file. In order to edit
this file, you must transfer the file from the module to your PC. After editing, you
must transfer the file back to the module.

This section describes these procedures.

Important:

The illustrations of configuration/debug menus in this section are intended

as a general guide, and may not exactly match the configuration/debug menus in your
own module. For specific information about the configuration/debug menus in your
module, refer to The Configuration/Debug Menu (page 39).
