Setting Config Test Minutes
Since there is a chance that RF configuration changes will disrupt communications, each
unit returns to its pre-configuration state after a timeout (unless the changes are saved to
FLASH before the timeout). This timeout is set with the Config Test Minutes parameter,
which can be set from 1 to 120 minutes.
When testing, the configuration test timeout value should be set before any other radio
module changes are made, so that the correct value is used if other changes cause the unit
to lock up. If you set the timeout too low, then you may not have time to save the changes
to FLASH. If you set it too high, then you will have to wait a long time for the unit to
reboot after a change that disrupts service.
Note:
All units in the same network must have this setting set to the same value.
