timeout

Type: Integer

The timeout property of the Connection class contains the number of milliseconds after which a synchronous or asynchronous listen (including continuous), read, or write operation times out.

The timeout value remains active for these operations until you reset the value in your application for that transient instance of the connection object.

The default value of zero (0) indicates that the operation does not time out.

The functionality of the timeout property is not supported in the NamedPipe subclasses of the Connection class.
