Jumps to ONTIMEOUT label after specified number of seconds.

<NoofSeconds> Number of seconds after which the jump to ONTIMEOUT takes place. If not specified, it defaults to -1 (Do not timeout at all).

• Each time, the Timeout is encountered in the script, the timeout value is reset from that point on.
• The command is useful when we are doing any lengthy operations in the script where we want to stop it if it exceeds the time limit.
• Timeout is active only during a call. The last timeout value encountered by the script is used when a call becomes active.
• If Timeout is not specified in the script, the script does not timeout at all.
