 ==== event_timeout ====
+The timeout is an object like a countdown, several things can be fired here: ''Trigger'', ''Set'', ''Reset'', ''Pause'', ''Unpause''
+to start/stop/reset (like a chronometer), to start (let it run), reset (stop and reset) or pause and unpause the internal timer.
+''Duration'' is the count down time.
+When the timer has reached zero the list of ''Events'' are fired.
+> The event delay could theoretically restart itself causing a periodic check, but this should be avoided if possible as there are better ways to catch changes in a system state, e.g. the ''event_edge'' or to constantly monitor a value, e.g. logic_greater, logic_or, etc. (see [[aircraft:tmd:logic|TMD Logic]]).
