count
Number of times to repeat the trigger (0 to 1,048,575)
N
Trigger timer number (1 to 4)
Details
If the count is set to a number greater than 1, the timer automatically starts the next trigger timer
delay at the expiration of the previous delay.
Set the count to zero (0) to cause the timer to generate trigger events indefinitely.
If you use the trigger timer with a trigger model, make sure the count value is the same or more than
any count values expected in the trigger model.
Example 1
print(trigger.timer[1].count)
Read trigger count for timer number 1.
