If you just want a 30 second delay in you code, you can use this:
pause(30)
If you want some form of visible timer you could use something like this:
waittime = 30;
interval = 1;
timepassed = 0;
while timepassed < waittime
pause(interval)
timepassed = timepassed + interval;
disp(['Time passed:' num2str(timepassed)])
end
If this isnt precise for your usecase you could incorporate tic/toc into your code to account for the overhead produced by the console output and calculations. Or you could get the starttime with datetime and then compare to that in every loop cycle.

Its really just a loop that counts up in 1 second intervalls. If you want to change the visual representation you have to replace the "disp" command with an output command of your choosing.
If you dont want the output in the console you could plot the numbers into a figure and then update the data and refresh the figure each loop cycle with the "drawnow" command.
