Is it possible to display the remaining time of a timer on dmd?

 

Any ideas how you would go about this

 

Cheers

Yes.

 

Here's a typical scenario:  Hurry Up Mode

 

Sub StartHurryUp()

HurryUpCount = 30 (set the Hurry Up Time to 30 seconds)

HurryUpTimer.Set TRUE, 1000 (after one second, display the timer on the DMD)

End Sub

 

Sub HurryUpTimer_Expired()

HurryUpCount = HurryUpCount - 1

MyDMD.Text = "HURRY UP TIME: " & HurryUpCount

 

When the count reaches zero, stop the timer.....

 

If (HurryUpCount =<0) Then HurryUpTimer.Enabled = FALSE

End Sub

 

 

The highlighted red is how the timer is displayed on the DMD.
