Sensor sens 

the Sensor object to be updated  

Double heartBeat 

How often the sensor communicates with the gateway if no activity recorded.  

Double pollRate 

How often the local alert communicates with the gateway looking for new down messages.  

Double alarmTime 

How long the alarm is on before snoozing.  

Double snoozeTime 

How long the alarm is turned off before alarming again ( a new notification will force the device back into the alarm state).  

Boolean enableBackLight

Boolean enableScrollingDisplayAlarm

Integer messageScrollSpeed 

How long to display a single notification, while alarming, before scrolling to the next notification.  

Integer lcdContrast 

LCD Contrast setting: Lower is lighter, higher is darker.  

Integer volumeControl 

Controls the volume of the alarm buzzer.  

Integer failedTransmissionsBeforeLinkMode 

The number of transmissions the sensor sends without response from a gateway before it goes to battery saving link mode. In link mode the sensor will scan for a new gateway and if not found will enter battery saving sleep mode for 2 hours before trying to scan again. Lower number will allow sensors to find new gateways with fewer missed readings. Higher numbers will cause the sensor to hold it setting in a noisy RF environment better. (Zero will cause the sensor to never enter link mode. to find a new gateway channel the battery will have to be cycled out of the sensor.)
