Using timer

[yifeipan]

I have a problem using timer to control
{eventA 2 minutes then eventB}
4minutes then
{eventA 2 minutes then eventB}
4minutes then
{eventA 2 minutes then eventB}
.....
I appreciate your help.

If you set the timer to 2 minutes initially (120 * 1000) then after event b set the value to 4 minutes and then loop.

loop
event a
timer1.interval = 120 * 1000
event b
timer1.interval = 240 * 1000
end loop

I haven't tried it but that should do the trick

By the way, the above code goes in the timer event function.

You can always use a variable and increase it each second.

and have a select case:
Example :

'Timer1 with interval 1000
Static mySecond as long
mySecond = mySecond +1
Select case mySecond
 
Case 120
 
Case 240
 
Case '...
 
End Select
