Metric (Celsius).

• User Description: Enter any additional identification details here.
• Session Timeout: Enter the number of minutes (3 by default) the ATS waits before logging off an
inactive user. If you change this value, you must log off for the change to take effect.
NOTE: If a user closes the web interface without logging off, they are still considered logged on
for the time specified in the Session Timeout field. This can prevent other users from taking the
place of a user that leaves the web interface.

99 attempts. 0= unlimited.
