Pressing SHIFT+R will toggle the Repeater mode on or off.
Option T - Timeout Configuration
Menu option T allows you to enable a global timeout for the sensors activated in the
system. This timeout will set the data of a sensor, which has not been heard from in
the specified time, to zero. This can be used to set alarms for sensors that have
stopped communicating.
Press SHIFT+T to enable the timeout. Once enabled, you are required to set the
number of minutes before a sensor gets timed out. This can be 15 to 120 minutes
(2 hours). This is a global timeout, so all sensors activated in the system will be subject
to this setting.
To deactivate, reenter this option, and press SHIFT+T again.
