(This number should be within 30ms of the gaming machine config in most scenarios.)

• Update config.ini to use the server computers IP (IE: 192.168.1.6 would be the remote OBS machine)

• By default, config.ini sends updates to the server every 250ms, if you want this to happen faster, you can lower the value. Please note that lowering the value may increase CPU usage which could cause degredation in your games. If you update the client update rate, please also update the server update rate to be within 30ms of your new client value.
