The PU should not honor the appeal while continuous action is ongoing. If the defense wants to pause and wait for the umpire (who is waiting for the action to stop), that is their choice, but it is a dangerous one.
Otherwise, once the PU steps out, takes off his mask, etc., it could be considered an implied time out. No formal TIME is required.

Why is time out implied by taking off your mask? I always took off my mask when the ball was hit, a pitch got away, there was an attempted steal, etc. No time out implied.
