In my experiment there is a block with 15 trials that participants need to response under time-pressure.  To illustrate this pressure, I'm trying to set 'timeout' in each trial, ideally 850-950 milliseconds.  However, the formats available for timer don't seem to allow this.  When set to "ss:ms", and timeout == 850,  the timer will show 01:01 and then start the counting.  

Could you kindly suggest how I should overcome this or is there some thing else I should do other than using timer?  Thank you in advance!
