Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Delay Start and Start Time?

Delay Start is the duration to wait before an action begins (e.g., 'Wait 3 hours'). Start Time is the specific clock time when the task starts (e.g., 'Start at 3:10 PM'). Most modern appliances require the Delay Start duration.

What is the formula for delay start?

The formula is: Delay = (Target Finish Time - Duration) - Current Time. Our calculator handles this math automatically, including adjustments for tasks that cross midnight.
