If using milliseconds, you want to use SCDateTimeMS. Also, change Seconds to Milliseconds throughout. (IntervalMilliseconds, GetTimeInMilliseconds) ExecuteTimedFunction is just a placeholder for your function/logic. You would replace that with whatever you needed to call. Is the study itself called on a regular interval?
Could you explain what you mean there? From above with a few more notes: SCSFExport scsf_ModifiableTimer(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc)
{ //modifiable interval (milliseconds) SCInputRef IntervalMilliseconds = sc.Input[0]; if (sc.SetDefaults) { sc.GraphName = "Modifiable Timer Function"; sc.AutoLoop = 0; sc.UpdateAlways = 1; IntervalMilliseconds.Name = "Interval Milliseconds"; IntervalMilliseconds.SetInt(250); // interval 250ms IntervalMilliseconds.SetIntLimits(1, 60000); // max ms return; } // store last execution time static SCDateTimeMS LastExecutionTime; SCDateTimeMS CurrentTime = sc.CurrentSystemDateTimeMS; int Interval = IntervalMilliseconds.GetInt(); // get interval in ms // execute on specified interval if ((CurrentTime - LastExecutionTime).GetMilliSeconds() >= Interval) { ExecuteTimedFunction(); // replace with your actual function LastExecutionTime = CurrentTime; // reset } } Date Time Of Last Edit: 2025-02-17 22:01:59
