Desktop Automation

Command Time-Out (sec.)

Specifies how long the Design Studio must wait for a reply from a command on an automation device. This option applies only to automating terminals and browsing websites in Robots.

A command is an instruction sent to automation device, such as click a mouse button, open an application, add a location found guard, and so forth. If a command cannot be completed in a specified time, the service sends a notification and execution of the robot stops.

Note that in case of a Guarded Choice step, this setting applies to invoking the guard in the workflow, but waiting for the guard to be satisfied is not bound to this timeout and can wait forever. Similar situation occurs when using the Move Mouse and Extract steps. The commands must be invoked on the device within the timeout specified in this field, but the robot waits for up to 240 seconds for the commands to complete.
