Hello,
Two parts to my quandary, both relating to a school-chime stack I'm
making -- it plays a chime sound-file at hourly-intervals (more or
less) every weekday.
First, I recall reading once a warning about overly long send
values. In my stack's case, the send A in X seconds values are
either
Nicholas,
I don't think there are any specific concerns about very long send it times
other than the minor ones I'm writing here.
1. You will have a problem when Daylight Savings time kicks in and out because
it is counting the seconds not actually paying attention to what time it is.
2.
Here's a technique that I used that provides very accurate and dependable
long period timer
use 'send in time' with SHORT timings to check the current time.
then compare the number obtained against your desired timeout value.
It could even be a list of values each being a trigger for an event.
