“Timer” command index
Timers
are system-based timers, which allow you a recurring interval at which the
elapsed events are raised in your application. You can then handle these events (see
chapter
to execute regular or single alarms you need. System
Timers raise the elapsed events, based on the value of the interval. You could use a
system Timer to execute alarms, for example, every 30 minutes. See examples in
chapters , page and
Each timer can be:
configured,
started,
stopped,
erased
paused
resumed
armed,
disarmed,
saved
loaded
requested
Remarks: Only armed timers raise events when they expire (by default, all times are
armed when they start. To manually arm a timer you have to disarm it first).
