The timer, is working now. But once the output is set i cannot put it to 0 even if the input is pressed for a shorter time then 3000 ms. I dont know what i did wrong, can somebody help me. Below is the code that i used ...

if (contactor == 1) output1=1;
else output1=0;

// RS FLIP FLOP SETS FINAL OUTPUT
 (!key_not_pressed 
    && (time_key_active== 0))      contactor = 0;
else if (!key_not_pressed 
         && (time_key_active == 1)) contactor = 1;
else if (key_not_pressed 
         && (time_key_active == 0)) contactor = 0;
else if (key_not_pressed 
         && (time_key_active == 1)) contactor = 0;

//     LOGIC AND - chaks the status of the key
if ((key_check_status ==0)    // check key status failed 
     && input1) // key pressed
		key_not_pressed = 0;
else if ((key_check_status ==0)  // check key status failed
     && !input1) // key not pressed
		key_not_pressed  = 0;
else if ((key_check_status ==1) // check key status success
     && !input1)  // key not presset 
                key_not_pressed  = 1;
else if ((preverjanje_stanja_tipke==1)	// check key stats success
     &&  input1) // key pressed
                key_not_pressed  = 0;

// FLIP FLOP - CHECK KEY STATUS
if (input1  // key pressed
    && (time_key_active == 0))	// key not active
		preverjanje_stanja_tipke = 1;
else if (input1 // key pressed
    && (time_key_active == 1)) // key active
    key_check_status = 0;
else if (!input1 // key not pressed 
    && (time_key_active == 0)) // key not active
    key_check_status = 0;
else if (!input1 // key not pressed 
    && (time_key_active== 1)) // key active
    key_check_status = 0;

 //		 TIMER STARTER
if (input1) {
    begin_s = CSS_GetTime(&begin_ms);
      do {
        time_key_active= 0;
        now_ms = 0;
        now_s = CSS_GetTime(&now_ms);
        passed_time = (now_s - begin_s) * 1000 + (now_ms - begin_ms);
      
      }
      while (passed_time < 3000);
      time_key_active= 1;
}

Thanks for your time and help,
best regards,
