MPC-10 and MPC-20; State Timer int16

G'day there,

We have discovered that the State Timer variable in default MPC-10 and MPC-20 configurations is int16. This is problematic when using countdown timers in particular, as it means the maximum run time is around 9 hours rather than the full 24 - not sufficient for some of our customers.

I believe the type of this variable should be int32 to bring it in line with the other timers used.

Thanks,
Stuart

I noticed the State Timer is in the Modbus map as UShort also. Patrick is off today. Unless he's checking his email, I'll talk to him on Monday and see what he wants to do.

Looks like they are making the change to make the State Timer variable 32-bits. It should be out with the next release.
