I would like to know what is the function that allows me to display deducing counter on my GUI

There is no automatic means to display data on a CVI panel. If you want to have the clock regularly updated you need some periodic task to do it: if you have a timer control or a periodic thread already active in your program you can add the clock update there, otherwise you can add a timer control for this task.

I want to call two functions:
How I will call them in Ontimer?

Thanck you

1) Function 1:
int __stdcall DLLEXPORT MPT_SYS_Display_RemTime_LED (int Index,int Status,int On_Off)

{
int Return_Value=0;
char CtrlName_LED[100]="";
int ID_LED;

if(Return_Value=CmtGetLock (LockIhmHandle)<0)
return Return_Value;

/* if (Return_Value=Fmt(CtrlName_LED, "%s<%s%d","ALIM_",Index)==-1)
goto Error;

if (Return_Value=GetCtrlName(CtrlName_LED)==-1)
goto Error;

ID_LED=TabResult[CtrlID]; */

if (Status==0)
{
if (Return_Value=SetCtrlAttribute (TabCtrlTab[tab_Rem][TabHandle], Remaining_Time_Led[Index], ATTR_ON_COLOR, VAL_GREEN)<0)
goto Error;
}


if (Status<0)
{
if (Return_Value=SetCtrlAttribute (TabCtrlTab[tab_Bench][TabHandle], Remaining_Time_Led[Index], ATTR_ON_COLOR, VAL_RED)<0)
goto Error;
}

if (Return_Value=SetCtrlAttribute (TabCtrlTab[tab_Rem][TabHandle], Remaining_Time_Led[Index], ATTR_CTRL_VAL, On_Off)<0)
goto Error;

Return_Value=CmtReleaseLock (LockIhmHandle);

return Return_Value;

Error :
CmtReleaseLock (LockIhmHandle);
return Return_Value;
}

2) Function 2

/***********************************************************************************************/
int __stdcall DLLEXPORT DisplayRemainingTime (int Index, char as8InputString[])
{
int Return_Value=0;
//int s32CtrlId;

//GetPanelHandleFromTabPage (pnlE01, PNL_E01_TAB, 1, &iMyTabHandle);

if(Return_Value = SetCtrlAttribute(TabCtrlTab[tab_Rem][TabHandle],Remaining_Time[Index] , ATTR_CTRL_VAL, as8InputString) < 0)
return Return_Value;

/* if(Return_Value = SetCtrlAttribute(TabResult[TabHandle],s32CtrlId, ATTR_CTRL_VAL, as8InputString) < 0)
return Return_Value; */

/*if(Return_Value = SetCtrlAttribute(TabCtrlTab[tab_All_Test_Lines][TabHandle], s32CtrlId, ATTR_CTRL_VAL, 22) < 0)
return Return_Value; */

return Return_Value;
}

3) My function OnTimer:

int CVICALLBACK OnTimer (int panel, int control, int event,
void *callbackData, int eventData1, int eventData2)
{

return 0;
}

If the functions have been succesfully exported by the DLL you should be able to call them easily in the timer control callback, but I cannot help you in interfacing between TestStand and CVI as I don't use TestStand.
