Quick Flag Question

[Desert_AIP]

I know ther's a document detailing the flag changing behavior, hierarchy scheme, I've seen it.
I searched the HAI Knowledge Base and couldn't find it.
There is some good info on flags in the Application Directory, but the question I have is not there.
I don't have access to my controller right now to test this.

I know I can cancel a flag that is running on a timer by sending an ON, OFF or SET command.
I know if a flag is running on a timer and I send it a longer time it will be updated to the new time and will not be updated if I send a shorter time.

If I send an timed ON command to a flag that is ON indefinitely, does the timer start running and then issue the OFF command at the end?
Or do I need to send an OFF or SET command first and then a timed ON command?

Thanks

A timed on/off command will always return to the opposite state, regardless of the state prior to the timed command. Timed level commands will return to the previous level.

Perfect, that's what I was hoping for.

Thanks Brian.
