Need help with syntax options

We are sending out an update using the update wizard and the advertisement is not performing the way I think it should. I believe my problem lies in the (time detected, time authorized) options. Here is what we want - we want the ad to wait 30 minutes for user intervention and if no response to postpone the installation. We want the advertisement to be available for the users to install from AP. The ad should run every day and not install without user intervention for 3 days. After the 3 days expires it should install and reboot the system.
What is happening is, we advertised the program yesterday and it installed and rebooted the systems right away.
I think the reason is that I am not understanding the time authorized/detected explanation. If the program was detected as applicable more than 3 days ago is that why it is installing right away? I need to know where my syntax is wrong. This is the way it is currently - PatchInstall.exe /g:72 /i /c:30 /t:10 /p /z:ws /s
Any help with this is appreciated. I have only sent out a few ads and have always had trouble with confidence that they would perform as needed. It is important that it doesn't install right away and reboot so our clients aren't disrupted.
