A guide’s time estimate is always going to be in minutes, and the shortest time that can be entered is one minute. Typically it’s best to be conservative with this estimate, considering an operator might be seeing and reading through a guide for the first time.

You could alternatively write in an expected time (in seconds) in the introduction of the guide. This will appear above the first step in standard view and on the first page in operator view.
