Turn this on to send output in the low-priority queue. The autostart operates as a timepoint object that is internal to the clocker object.

If the autostart attribute is enabled (non-zero) the clocker object will begin running automatically at the time specified with the this attribute. If turned on (non-zero) the clocker object will begin running automatically at the time specified with the autostarttime attribute. This message is meaningless when the clocker is not running, since it always resets to 0 anyway when stopped. In left inlet: Resets the elapsed time to 0 without stopping or restarting the clock clocker continues to report the new elapsed time at the same regular interval. The word clock by itself sets the clocker object back to using Max’s regular millisecond clock. The word clock, followed by the name of an existing setclock object, sets the clocker object to be controlled by that setclock object rather than by Max’s internal millisecond clock. In right inlet: A list may be used to specify time in one of the Max time formats. The clocker object’s minimum interval time is 0.02 second. If clocker is already running when it receives a non-zero number, it continues reporting the elapsed time at regular intervals from that new point, but without resetting the clock time to 0. The time elapsed since clocker was started is sent out the outlet at regular intervals. In left inlet: Any non-zero number starts the clocker object. If the clocker object is running, a bang message will reset the count. If the clocker object is not running, a bang message will start the count. In left inlet: Starts the clocker object.
