Details
When this command is set to on, the timer performs the delay operation.

start seconds.
To use the timer as a simple delay or pulse generator with digital I/O lines, make sure the timer start
time in seconds and fractional seconds is configured for a time in the past. To use the timer as an
alarm, configure the timer start time in seconds and fractional seconds for the desired alarm time.

configure the start seconds. Enable the
