How do I start a timer after power-on, or when the input signal goes away?

Both of these functions can be implemented using the Timer With External Reset cell in SigmaStudio.

How do I start a timer when the SigmaDSP powers on, and then output a GPIO flag when the timer is complete? This could be used, for example, in power sequencing for a system that requires staggered startup times between functional blocks.

Also, how would I start a timer when the audio input signal goes away, so that I could mute other parts of the system via GPIO after a set period of time?

The project file is attached as a guide.

Or save a bit by combining the delay with the trigger, since trigger just has to be non-zero:
