It is assume that the system/device is off-line after 1 day (1d) 1 month (1m) the figure in front of 'd' or 'm' can be changed, e.g. 7d is 7 days (as in the information window in the in your image).

Thank you first for reply me
Ok , why i must write anyone of them ? why i must tell them that the system device ll be offline after (1d) , (1m) whatever ?
If I turned off my system for 3 days for example , they will not sending me the updates automatically ?
all i worry about it for not sending me the updates.

Thank you again bro.

In your various devices it will be periodically updating your my.avast.com page with the status of the device. So it will be expecting these updates, so after that period it assumes that the device is off-line.

As an avast user, I honestly don't know how that variable is used or what happens if after that time has elapsed. But if your computer is regularly off-line for long periods then having it set to '1d' should have some sort action in your my.avast.com page for that device.

It isn't responsible for sending you updates, that is in the actual program.
