It is possible to change the on blink time of the NE and group symbols as well as the toggle buttons and numbers of the Alarm Status dialog. The blinking is used to indicate to the operator that there are unacknowledged (new) alarms for one of the symbols that are on the currently displayed map. By default the blink time is set for approximately 3 seconds on and 0.5 second off.

This time may be changed by editing the parameter “blink_timer” in the file
