1. Debounce Cycles: This setting defines how many CPU cycles are needed to determine a
change in status. Most contacts bounce when they first make contact and this setting prevents
those bounces from being recorded as separate events.
Do not change this setting unless recommended by RKI Instruments, Inc.
2. Input Validate: This setting defines how many milliseconds the contact must stay in a changed
state before the device sends an email and/or text. The default setting is 5000 milliseconds (5
seconds).
