Look up schedule and you should find what you are looking for. :-)

For a class fuction use
%object.schedule(500,"functionName");


For a global fuction use
schedule(500,0,"functionName");


(500 is the time interval in milliseconds)

%obj.setTimerOn(2000);//callback every 2 seconds


if objClass is the className of the %obj:

function objClass::onTimer(%this) {
  //Timer Body
}
