+---- Thread: ETH02 Connection Timeout setting (/thread-2544.html)
- gaynorc - 10-26-2011
On the ETH02 I purchased this august, the \"connection timeout (min)\" entry in DS Manager was set to 5 minutes.
In the UCM manual downloaded from Cytech the diagram shows the \"connection timeout (min)\" set to \"0=Disabled\".
Which setting do you advise for use with ETH02?
Thanks

This should be set to 1 minute especially if used for iPhone
It disconnects if there is no communications for the idle time so it avoids a device hogging the connection
Only 1 connection at a time is allowed to the UCM/Ethernet
It is also good for security so that someone cannot pick up the phone or computer and control your system
The new firmware/application for the ETH02 should also be used
