Hi Blake,

    Yes and no. The red flashing means that no factory tried to set a 
default value for that configuration parameter before event processing 
started. Since this is a special parameter used by the framework itself, 
the sequencing just happens to not set a default until after the check 
is made. So in short that is "normal". It should still work though.

Regards,
-David
