[arm-allstar] Startup Macro Delay in rpt.conf - How to make longer than 120 seconds?

[David McGough]

Steve,

The maximum for the macro startup delay is 120 seconds.  If 120 seconds 
isn't long enough, your network connection probably isn't stable??  
...And, another solution is needed.

delay the startup macro to allow everything to become stable before 
issuing.  For example, the startup macro is *7340668 and the startup 
macro delay is set to 90 for a 90 second delay.  I noticed sometime the 
connection does not work, so I wanted to delay the startup macro longer, 
for example 300 seconds.  What I found was the maximum Startup macro 
delay time was 120 seconds. If I entered a longer delay, for example 300 
seconds, it still only delayed the startup macro by 120 seconds.

Am I doing something wrong?  Is there a way to delay the startup macro 
longer that 120 seconds?

Thanks,
