Does Winboard time control override a programs?

I have the Winboard time control set at 60 moves in 60 minutes. When using Bringer through Winboard I notice that on it's GUI it has the time control as 60 in 60 + 60 minutes to finish. Will the Winboard setting override this or do I have to change The Bringer GUI to 60 in 60 followed by 60 in 60 followed by 60 to finish? (which seems the best equivalent). If I have to change the Bringer GUI and use the \reuse \reuse2 Winboard configuration settings in running a match as suggested, will Bringer retain the time setting each time it restarts? If not, does that then suggest that I can only play games with my 60 in 60 time control one by one? (or take my chances not using the \reuse \reuse2 settings?). Please help!

Hallo Graham ,
when using Bringer under winboard you can ( and should ) set the time control in winboard and Bringer will use the winboard time control , this means: "yes , the time control will be overwritten ."
When you start Bringer native the next time it will have the time of the last Winboard game as Bringer remembers the last time control used before you close it .
/reuse /reuse2 is not needed for Winboard matches with Bringer but won't do harm either.
I hope this answers all parts of your questions or else ask again .
greetings.
pete
