Server-based timers can be used to synchronize the operation across multiple VisTools. If a parameter such as
the timer direction, preset or alarm time is changed from one VisTool, then this is displayed in the other
instances. The displayed time is also synchronized.
Up to 32 independent server-based timers can be configured.
1. Start by adding a Server based Timer element to the Logic branch of the 'Tree Definition', and enter a
Timer ID number from 1 to 32.
You can use the remaining fields to define how the timer is triggered.
