Hi Glen,
I commonly faille carousels for this, so I wasn't thinking, for whatever reason that this text falls into that category, because it seems to be the same piece of text. Thanks for your help.

Jim

How about "2.2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide
<https://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/time-limits-pause.html>". Text that updates every 5 seconds (or however long) falls under the "Auto-updating" section.

"For any auto-updating information that (1) starts automatically and (2) is presented in parallel with other content, there is a mechanism for the user to pause, stop, or hide it or to control the frequency of the update unless the auto-updating is part of an activity where it is essential."
