You would need to use the "High/Low for Time Period - Extended" on a chart that has the minimum time period setting you want to use for the bar period. Then set your Start and End times for the study and set the Input for "Display High/Low Incrementally" to "Yes".

In terms of the "Line Stop Time", if you want the lines to display across the entire session, then you would want this to be 1 second before the Start Time in the study. For instance, if your Start Time is 08:30:00, then the "Line Stop Time" should be "08:29:59".

With regards to the Bar Period, you have to keep in mind that studies are based on the bars, not the underlying data. So if you want a 30 second Opening Range, then bars have to be a Bar Period of at most 30 seconds. If you are going to use a smaller bar period, then you it needs to be in an increment that can evenly go into the Opening Range period you want. For instance, for a 30 second opening range, you can use a Bar Period of 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, but not 4 seconds, as 30 is not evenly divisible by 4.
