If you don't know how to use it, why do you think you need it ? It looks like it's used for synchronisation, from the MSDN article.

I'll recommend you to read this article[^] from Nemanja Trifunovic[^] about timers (different kind of them including waitable timers). It will explain you easily how to implement them and moreover it will give you some interesting samples.

Hope this helps... :thumbsup:
