The following table shows a complete list of combinations of timers and triggers.
|
Trigger Condition |
The Trigger condition is true, when... |
|---|---|
|
While True AND Simple Timer
|
...the trigger is true and a specified time period has passed since step activation |
|
While True AND Minute Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true and the specified offset (in seconds) is reached |
|
While True AND Hour Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true and the specified offset (in minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True AND Day Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true and the specified offset (in hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True AND Week Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true and the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True AND Month Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true and the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True OR Simple Timer
|
...the trigger is true or a specified time period has passed since step activation |
|
While True OR Minute Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true or the specified offset (in seconds) is reached |
|
While True OR Hour Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true or the specified offset (in minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True OR Day Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true or the specified offset (in hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True OR Week Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true or the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True OR Month Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is true or the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While True DELAY Simple Timer
|
...the trigger is true and a specified time period has passed after the trigger became true, regardless if the trigger becomes false again |
|
While True DELAY Retentive Timer
|
...the trigger is true and remains true for a specified time period. If the trigger becomes false, this timer is halted and continued when it becomes true. |
|
While True DELAY NonRetentive Timer
|
...the trigger is true and remains true continuously for a specified time period. If the trigger becomes false before this time is reached, the timer is reset. |
|
While False AND Simple Timer
|
...the trigger is false and a specified time period has passed since step activation |
|
While False AND Minute Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false and the specified offset (in seconds) is reached |
|
While False AND Hour Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false and the specified offset (in minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While False AND Day Cyclic Timer
|
...when the trigger is false and the specified offset (in hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While False AND Day Cyclic Timer False AND Week Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false and the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While False AND Month Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false and the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While False OR Simple Timer
|
...the trigger is false or a specified time period has passed since step activation |
|
While False OR Minute Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false or the specified offset (in seconds) is reached |
|
While False OR Hour Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false or the specified offset (in minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While False OR Day Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false or the specified offset (in hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While False OR Week Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false or the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |
|
While False OR Month Cyclic Timer
|
...the trigger is false or the specified offset (in days:hours:minutes:seconds) is reached |

While False DELAY Simple Timer
|
...the trigger is false and a specified time period has passed after the trigger became false, regardless if the trigger becomes true |
|
While False DELAY Retentive Timer
|
...the trigger is false and remains true for a specified time period. If the trigger becomes true, this timer is halted and continued when it becomes false again. |
|
While False DELAY NonRetentive Timer
|
...the trigger is false and remains false continuously for a specified time period. If the trigger becomes true before this time is reached, the timer is reset. |
