The SetTimer method is used to start the timer.
The syntax for accessing the method is:

function SetTimer (id : int, milliseconds : int)

Method arguments:

1. id is a required argument. It specifies the timer ID. Allowed values are int type.
2. milliseconds is a required argument. It specifies the period with which the timer will trigger if it is not stopped by the KillTimer method. It is specified in milliseconds. Allowed values are int type.

Example. 2 seconds after the macro 1 is executed, start recording on camera 1.

if(Event.SourceType=="LOCAL_TIMER" && Event.Action=="TRIGGERED" && Event.SourceId==333)
{
 KillTimer(333);
 DoReactStr("CAM","1","REC","");
}
 
if(Event.SourceType=="MACRO"&& Event.SourceId == "1" && Event.Action == "RUN")
{
  SetTimer(333,2000); //333 - id, 2000 msec = 2 sec - period
}
