Feed Cycle w Display question

[fio1022]

When preparing to feed using a feed cycles on display,it does not seem like there's enough time.Activates after one second without confirming correct choice.
Is there a way to delay this function using the display?Allowing more time to scroll between feed cycles a,b,c or d without immediately turning on.Basically like the web interface.

Not really; but you could use the web interface; that doesn't commit until you save.

Thanks,I kind of new the answer but had to ask.

That'd be a nice feature enhancement, wouldn't it?! Can't say how many times I've had to cancel the wrong feed cycle and scroll through them again to get the correct one. Just a couple more seconds pause before kicking in would be a big plus!

One nice thing if you want feed cycle A, just hold the center button for about 5 seconds and it will go to that.

+1 on increasing the delay when selecting the cycle otherwise, or put a select or enter command on one of the multipurpose buttons to commit the selection

I asked Curt awhile back to put the letter (feed selection) in the center of the display and use the larger characters (with a longer delay) as my display is mounted low on my stand and I basically have to sit on the floor to see the selection. I use the iPod to trigger the feeds sometimes, but this seems like a pretty easy thing to implement in a firmware without much programming.

If you have an iPhone or Android, one of the web apps may be an even better way of doing it. Or at the very least another alternative.
