If your screen is in html, you can use the "refresh" command where you
can set the time to refresh.

Refreshing a kiosk screen

This is probably simple, but it has me scratching my head. I want to
automatically refresh a screen. There must be a better way than a loop
that just keeps subtracting the start time from the current time until
the refresh limit is reached? That seems like a solution that will
hammer performance. There must be a better way?

Any suggestions?
