Properties

int LedWizDefaultMinCommandIntervalMs [get, set]
 Gets or sets the mininimal interval between command for LedWiz units in miliseconds (Default: 1ms). Depending on the mainboard, usb hardware on the board, usb drivers, OS and other factors the LedWiz does sometime tend to loose or misunderstand commands received if the are sent in to short intervals. The settings allows to increase the default minmal interval between commands from 1ms to a higher value. Higher values will make problems less likely, but decreases the number of possible updates of the ledwiz outputs in a given time frame. It is recommended to use the default interval of 1 ms and only to increase this interval if problems occur (Toys which are sometimes not reacting, random knocks of replay knocker or solenoids). This is only a default value. The min command interval can also be set on a per LedWiz base in the cabinet config. More...
 
int LedControlMinimumEffectDurationMs [get, set]
 Gets or sets the minimum duration in milliseconds for LedControl effects occupying one output (e.g. contactors).

int LedControlMinimumRGBEffectDurationMs [get, set]
 Gets or sets the minimum duration in milliseconds for LedControl effects controlling RGB leds.
This settings has no effect if a duration or blinking is defined for the LedControlEffect. If this value is not specified in the globalconfig file, 120 miliseconds will be used by default. More...
