Poll interval value for 'Auto Refresh' option is ignored

[jasonhnz]

Describe The Problem: In Settings, Advanced options, when the Auto Refresh option is selected, the poll interval value appears to be ignored. I have entered a value of 21600 (6 hours) however the module still appears to be polling every minute. (as shown in the logs)

Using a GSM module , this polling is using up data allocation quickly.

To Reproduce: As above, go into advanced options, select Auto Refresh and set an interval val > 1 minute. Save and restart homebridge to pick up changes and watch logs for this service.

@jasonhnz yes there's a bug that doesn't update configuration properly via plugin Settings. However you can workaround this bug - instead of going to plugin Settings go to Config on homebridge screen - this opens raw config file where you can change pollInterval to whatever value you need. Once you restart plugin/homebridge it picks up this value. Meanwhile I'm going to provide a simple fix to plugin Settings to update correct value

"autoRefresh": true, "pollInterval": 180,
