Function:

The Timer behavior is a somewhat unique behavior in that it never produces an objective function. It has virtually no functionality beyond what is derived from the parent IvPBehavior class. It can be used to set a timer between the observation of one or more events (with condition flags) and the posting of one or more events (with end flags). The duration, duration_status, duration_idle_decay, condition, runflag and endflag parameters are all defined generally for behaviors. There are no additional parameters defined for this behavior.
