# Timer

The timer functionality is designed for applications without IO-Link.

The **LED Control Mode** needs to be set to "Automatic Scene Selection", so the timer can be started by activation of the switch or the inputs E1/E2.

:::note
Timer overwrites the **LED Effect** of the scene; LED Effects with prefix "Timer" are synchronized with the timer.
:::

## Example Use Case 1

**The output signal shall come in the beginning of the Timer period.**

1. Set **Sensor Mode** to "Static" or "Dynamic"
2. Set **Timer Function** to "1 - enabled"
3. Set **Trigger Timer** to "0 - when entering Scene 0"
4. Set **Timer timeout** to e.g. "10" s
5. Set **Output Minimum Impulse Time**
6. Set **LED Effect** for Timer

:::note
**Sensor Mode** needs to be "Static" or "Dynamic". If the sensor is in "Toggle" mode, the timer will start when the sensor is touched for a second time since it will be in "Scene 1" after the first touch and goes back to "Scene 0" after the second.

## Example Use Case 2

**The output signal shall come at the end of the Timer period.**

1. Set **Sensor Mode** to "Static" or "Dynamic"
2. Set **Timer Function** to "1 - enabled"
3. Set **Trigger Timer** to "1 - when entering Scene 1"
4. Set **Timer timeout** to e.g. "10" s
5. Set **Output Minimum Impulse Time** to e.g. "300" ms
6. Set **Output Activation Delay** to e.g. "9700" ms
7. Set **LED Effect** for Timer

:::note
**Sensor Mode** needs to be "Static" or "Dynamic".

**Output Activation Delay** = **Timer timeout** - **Output Minimum Impulse Time**.
