Anyone using an Orion should be aware the rise and fall is shorter than the
menu indicates.

Even at 10mS menu setting, the rise and fall is about 3mS. 4-5mS in the menu
is way too fast in actual rise and fall for close-spaced work.

I'm sure TT will correct that in a firmware upgrade, but until that change
it would be a good idea to use a 10mS setting.
