Using The Programming IDE / Resources / Timers


Creating a Timer

You must create a Timer before you can use it in your program.

From the Resources tree select Timers. From the dialog, click Create New
Enter a Name and a Preset value in msec. The timer can be used in two ways: to keep record of elapsed milliseconds, or to act as a stopwatch. Please have a look at the Timer Example pages to learn more about leading and trailing edge, accumulating timers, and more.
