This compound gets the particle state's timer values as set with the point cloud's Timer1_Start and Timer1_End attributes. This is used in conjunction with the Start Timer compound that lets you determine how long a particle stays in a particular state.
You can output the Start Time, End Time, Elapsed Time (that the particles are in the state), and Elapsed Percentage data.
For more information, see Setting Particle Timers.
