-|Sets the maximum allowed drift in the Fine Offset clock from the PC clock in seconds. If the clock drifts more than this value in 24 hours, then Cumulus may stop reading the data from the station. The actual drift gets logged to the diags file when the re-synchronise takes place, this will give an idea of whether it would be useful to adjust this setting.
