Some of the command points may be configured to be selected before executed.
Refer to the following parameter to configure the select/operate timeout period.
After the gateway receives the SELECT operation it will wait for this period of
time for the EXECUTE operation. If the gateway does not receive an EXECUTE
operation within this period of time it will require another SELECT operation
before the EXECUTE operation.
