58<h2>Description</h2>
59    <div class="section">
60<p>Class for representing timers.</p><p>Timers, like <a href="../../../nn/os/Event/Overview.html">events</a>, have two possible states: signaled and non-signaled. The <CODE>Wait</CODE> operation for a <CODE><a href="../../../nn/os/Timer/Overview.html">Timer</a></CODE> waits until the event enters the signaled state.</p><p>There are two types of timers: those that are manually reset and those that are automatically reset. This characteristic can be configured by parameters during initialization. See the documentation for the <CODE><a href="../../../nn/os/Event/Overview.html">Event</a></CODE> class for more details about the differences.</p><p>Timers do not enter the signaled state immediately. They do so only after after the <CODE><a href="../../../nn/os/Timer/StartOneShot.html">StartOneShot</a></CODE> function is called and the specified timespan elapses.</p><p>Alternately, by calling <CODE><a href="../../../nn/os/Timer/StartPeriodic.html">StartPeriodic</a></CODE> you can make them enter the signaled state on a periodic basis.</p><!-- write here --></div>
