time value, and connect that field to your function block.
1. In the Function Block Diagram Editor, right-click in any open
space on the page and choose Create Value Field.
2. Move the cursor to position the value field.
3. Click on the place where you want the value field to reside.

Time values can be entered in days (d), hours (h), minutes (m),
seconds (s), and milliseconds (ms).
