In a situation with universal timing – thus, all audience groups move in different tracks or sections but on the same basic timing loop, you should use the timer functionality built into the [[concepts:Flow]] system. However, if your show works another way, you can address the Flow timer directly with these commands

''timer_start:''

Starts the Flow timer. 

''timer_pause:''

Pauses Flow timer. 

''timer_resume:''

Resumes Flow timer.

''timer_stop:''

Stops Flow timer and resets it.
