    818120. Navigate to Device > Luup plugins, and locate your RFID receiver device.  Expand it, and for the "Expire Time" value, enter the number of seconds in which your transmissions will expire. 
    8282 
    83 Please note that the plugin will calculate the number of timers or "buffer" variables based on your Expire Time.  What this means is at the default value of 15 seconds, there are a total of 7 timers created, that will represent the first transmission received, and the next six transmissions that will be received during the following 15 seconds.  When a timer expires, it will start back up with the next transmission that is received.  For this reason, the longer the time, the less likely you will experience false "trips".  I'd recommend setting your Expire Time to no less than 10 seconds, but find the balance of reliability and response that works for you.
