100ms – 100 milliseconds
Example
Event generated 1s after the rise of event on row 1:
Event.Delay: StartEvent=1; Delay=1s
Event.Timer
The
block defines the event generated with a defined delay after another
Timer
specified event with a defined count of repetitions. Define this event to delay the
response to the other event by a defined time interval, or execute the response several
times.
Parameters
StartEvent
Define the timer starting event (i.e. the row number in the Automation tag on which
the event is defined). The parameter is optional. If no value is completed, the timer will
be started automatically.
StopEvent
Define the timer stopping event (i.e. the row number in the Automation tag on which
the event is defined). When StopEvent is executed, the timer will stop and will be
restarted by Event only. This parameter is optional.
Period
Define the timer period.
Example of valid values:
10 – 10 seconds (units are unnecessary)
10s – 10 seconds
100ms – 100 milliseconds
Count
Define the count of repetitions. The parameter is optional and the default value is 0,
which means that the count of timer generated events is unlimited. Value 1 makes the
timer behave as a Delay.
Example
Event generated three times in 1s intervals after the rise of event on row 1:
