    Polling interval question

    I am going to assume that this is the frequency that the plug in will poll the module? By default it is set to 0. When would you need to set this value to other than 0?

    some devices like the iMeter and original Lamplincs, and GarageHawk don't broadcast their status when it changes. so you would need to either use scheduled polling to update HS with their status, or do the polling in a event/script.

    Another alternative it to use polling for eveything in case a status change msg is missed.
