No.03053 Fujix Administrator Nov 16, 2008, 06:33	Because it works as it sets, I guess the current setting names are from the result of the game work?
No.03055 etabeta Developer Nov 16, 2008, 08:43	it would probably be worth adding a note in the driver about the manual reporting an incorrect value.
No.03056 Tafoid Administrator Nov 16, 2008, 14:58	I'd say this is likely not a bug .. or the manual is for another version of this with different timer settings. It's hard to fake a visible timer.
No.03061 Tafoid Administrator Nov 19, 2008, 17:27	I'm going to confirm the differences in timer values from the manual - but label it as possible. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that a manual could be wrong in a setting.
