Enterprise Architect - Executable State Machine - Time based transitions

It has been a while I'm working with Enterprise Architect 13.5 and simulating state machines. Until now I manage transitions with simple triggers which are available in the simulation events window.

I am looking for a way to make a time based transition between two states but I do not figure how to do it.

enter image description here

When simulation is running I can't find a way to manage a 30s timeout between two states.

    "Trigger and Events -- An Executable StateMachine supports event handling for Signals only. To use Call, Timing or Change Event types you must define an outside mechanism to generate signals based on these events."
