Tridium R2 Program block: binary enabled timer

[Ctl-fool]

Looking for a program code to perform a timer function that starts counting up seconds after a binary contact is engaged. Anyone out there done this?

Not simply like that - What do you want to do with the info? You can probably just expose this point from a Binary Input for reference. If you are more specific then we can probably help.

am looking for a delay-on-make function, and also want to display seconds elapsed since true condition with adjustable time parameter.

Hmmm - I have a delay On/Off program object for a Binary State. I could send that tomorrow when I am at the office (21:00 here!).
You can probably display the elapsed seconds no problem using a reset on the BI - I will check.
What is the adjustable time parameter for? Alarm after a certain active time? If so the BI can handle that as well, can it not?.

Man, I hate to post on such an old thread, but I'm not familiar with the R2 world, and I need a "delay on" function on a binary line.

I have a BI that's driving an autodialer, and I want to put a one or two minute debounce on it so that I stop getting calls for momentary changes.

On the existing BI, I see there's a delay setting on the Alarm, but I think that just delays the alarm and not the actual output. I say this because the delay is set to one minute and the emails linked to that alarm don't come as often as the autodialer calls me.

It's under the local library. Look under Tridiumx>programlib>util>BDelay right click, copy, paste

Wow, that was easy. Thank you for directing me there!
