Principal functions:

create_ET_reminder

purpose: to create an elapsed time reminder that will generate an alert:

• at the given elapsed time(s) and
• with the given frequency (if given)
• for the given duration (if given)

create_RT_reminder

purpose: to create a real time reminder that will generate an alert:

• at the given real time(s) and
• with the given frequency (if given)
• for the given duration (if given)

At the point of definition (calling), the above functions can also provide additional functionality by allowing the inclusion of a subtype parameter that can be used to switch to specific processing when a reminder alert is raised, and up to four user provided integer parameters that can be interrogated once the reminder alert is triggered.

The framework also provides many other capabilities. A fuller appreciation can be found by reference to the User Guide.
