Input-Events:

• 'EV_SET_TIMER': Set the timer.

  Broadcast the 'EV_TIMEOUT' or timeout_event_name event when the seconds time has elapsed.

  If autostart is true, the timer is cyclic.

  Associated data to event:

  • seconds: seconds of timer.
  • autostart: cyclic timer.

  With seconds=-1 the current timer is cancelled.

Output-Events:

• 'EV_TIMEOUT': Timer over.

  Send the 'EV_TIMEOUT' or timeout_event_name event to subscribers.

start_up()

Subcribe the output-events to subscriber.

The output-events are broadcasting using post_event(), forcing to get timeout events by queue, not directly.
