2 key send with time interval

[Octave]

Hi,

can someone tell me what is wrong with my loop, coz it seems to stop for a period of time and start again and most of the time it would miss sending the key(key send but no key input detected on the active window). this is for sending 1st key(key 9)repeatedly and 2nd key(key 1) is send in a time interval of 4min(240000).

WinActivate("window's title")

WinWaitActive("window's title")

sleep(3000)

$time = 1

while 1

If $time = 240 then send("1")

If $time = 240 then $time = 1

$time = $time + 1

sleep(500)

Send("9")

Send("9")

sleep(500)

WEnd

Welcome to the forums octave!

Just before we get started, just a note to you: Please enclose your autoit code between autoit tags - this is the button beneath the bold button.

WinActivate("window's title")
 WinWaitActive("window's title")
 sleep(3000)
 $time = 1

while 1
    If $time = 240 Then ;Just enclose it in a whole if statement
             send("1")
         $time = 1
        EndIf

    $time += 1        ;same as $time = $time + 1
    sleep(500)
        Send("9")
    Send("9")
    sleep(500)
WEnd

That should do it, it looks pretty close anyway.

Please let me know how it is.
