Timer tab: Script Support Functions dialog box

You use the Timer tab to insert a timer into the current script and to stop the timer. Timers remain running until you stop them explicitly or exit Functional Test.

The Timer tab has the following controls:

Start Timer: Name -- Enter the name you want to use for the timer.

Insert Code -- Inserts the timerStart("name") code at the cursor location in the script, where name is the name you entered in Start Timer: Name field.

Stop Timer: Timers -- Select from the list the timer that you want to stop or enter the name of a timer that was used in another recording session. The list contains all the timers that have been started in the recording session.

Do not insert a timerStop statement before the corresponding timerStart statement.

Insert Code -- Inserts the timerStop("name")code at the cursor location in the script where name is the name you selected in Stop Timer: Timers field.

To open: If recording, click the Insert Script Support Commands button on the Recording Monitor toolbar and click the Timer tab. If editing, click the Insert Recording into Active Functional Tester Script button on the Functional Tester toolbar, click the Insert Script Support Commands button on the Recording toolbar, and click the Timer tab.
