Hi, I want to use a timer only once, at 1 second after the initialization of my main form.

Hi Ejb timer service can start some process in desired time intervals. Also we can do the same thing with cron (min 1 minute) interval.

I have a Main Program which is running a script on the target device(smart phone) and in a while loop waiting for stdout messages.
