Important: Please exit DSLR Remote Pro before running the Configure.exe utility otherwise any changes you make may not be saved properly.
EVF Settings
EvfIntervalInMs - Specifies the refresh interval of the live view display in milliseconds (default value 80). A smaller value will give a faster refresh rate.

The delay is in milliseconds e.g. setting it to 500 will tell the software to send the command to take the photo half a second before the countdown timer reaches zero (see also PhotoboothCountdownDelayInMS)
