Indicates the amount of time, in minutes, between updates to the subordinates from the Master or Alternate Master. Updates initiated by the refresh timer occur in addition to updates initiated by a COV from the Master/Alt Master.
For example, if the Refresh Timer attribute’s value is 2, the Global Data Sharing object updates the subordinates with information from the Master/Alt Master every 2 minutes and with each COV.
If this attribute is set to zero instead, updates are only sent upon receipt of additional COV reports.
