The input to the PT needs to be a Time datatype. You can set it up as an INT or DINT and convert to Time. For example, if you want 5 seconds, the Time value is T#5000ms and the DINT would be 5000 which you would convert to Time and then use the tag at the PT input. There are FAQs that use this principle for HMI/PLC timer value setting by the operator via the HMI. The PLC reads the HMI value as DINT, converts to tag of type Time, and use that tag on the Timer PT input.
