Gen3 - Software - Adjustment of the Override time

Notes
The quickest method to change the Override Time in Gen 3 display software
Changing the Override Time in a Gen 3 requires a PC/Laptop, an SD card reader and the Windows 'Notepad' app. 
Steps to edit the relevant parameters:
1. Turn on and boot the computer
2. Insert the SD card from your telehandler into the PC card reader
3. On the SD card, locate the file:  data.cfg
4. On your PC, start the app: notepad.exe
5. Drag and drop data.cfg onto the open notepad page - image below represents some of what you will see.


6. The parameter that requires changes is the: 
MaximumOverrideTime=
A numerical value = will be entered/changed

7.  Make the changes as required:
Example: Changing the maximum override time from 15 seconds to 30 seconds
a. Go to the end of the number - 5
MaximumOverrideTime=15
b. Backspace until the number is no longer seen via the PC keyboard

c. Enter your new number
MaximumOverrideTime=30

8. Save the changes by selecting File > Save


Select 'Save' to save the modified configuration



9. Eject the SD card and insert it back into the Gen 3 Display
When the Gen 3 next boots up, the Override Time will be as edited in the data.cfg file.
Warning
Do NOT change any other parameters within the data.cfg file. Doing so may introduce gross inconsistencies and negate the Gen 3 abilities to be an effective safety system
