Looping Options
—Specify Count based loop or Time
based loop(min)
. In either case, the actual value is entered

For example, to set a time-based loop of 10 minutes:
testopt=”Looping Options:Time based loop(min)”
testopt=”Looping value:10”
•
Looping value—Specify an integer greater than zero.
For example, to set a count-based loop to iterate five times:
testopt=”Looping Options:Count based loop”
testopt=”Looping value:5”

options set to Count based loop with a looping value of 1.
