I am looking information about the timers in the nodemcu.

I am working with the arduino IDE.

I have seen some information, but it does not look so good.

I hope you can help me.

Thanks.

I want to know how can I calcule the timer time?

For example if I want to wait for ten minute. How can I know which values I have to use?

Thanks.

basically turning the led on and off turns pins high and low. In the example it turns the led on and off for 1000 milliseconds which is 1 second, so for you 10 minutes would be 600000? Although I read this timing method is not 100% accurate and rolls over after 50 days.
