Multiple templates can be set up with Template entries representing the different time intervals during the timed event(s).
An instance is then created from a template and then modified (if necessary).
An instance can be started and will then count down each instance entry until the final entry reaches 0, after which a message of "time finished" will be displayed.
When logged in, a user can start a master instance.  
Once a master instance is started, multiple slave instances (of the same instance as the master) can be opened and told to follow the master.
Master can pause, play, skip forward, backward, skip next or skip back.
Master timer updates the server every 3 seconds.
Slave instances poll the server every 3 seconds and update their time and running status.

Instances are used to display count-down time (left) for speakers or groups.
Instances resize font automatically according to screen / window size.
Hint: F11 to full-screen when wanting to display for the stage.

Messages can be entered on timer and displayed for x (default 10) seconds for the speaker.
Reclick the "Display" link a second time to stop displaying the message.  Timer continues in background and resumes display after message display ended.
