I believe that what he is referring to is ASA Rule 7:3:B, where it states that the batter must take her position in the batter's box within 10 seconds of being directed to do so by the umpire.
That was what I got from it, anyway.

Thanks Skahtboi,
I understand now. The ten seconds is set, but the time leading up to that warning is quite variable.
I have never gotten close enough to that situation to even consider going to the 10 second limit.
Sometimes, after a batter seems to be taking an awful long time getting a sign, I'll say, "Let's go, batter." I've never said, "You have 10 seconds."
