What is the nature of the event you want to repeat? Can you describe it in more detail?
I'm not clear about what you mean by "10 times every 30 seconds and then stop and reset itself". Do you mean that something will happen 10 times, then after 30 seconds there will be 10 more, repeating every 30 seconds? For how long?
Or do you mean that it will repeat every 30 seconds for a total of 10 times over 5 minutes?
If the latter, then one option would be to create a virtual device: VD1.
To start your repeat pattern, you'd run an event with two actions. One turns the device on. The other turns it off after a delay of 5 minutes.
Your repeat event would have a repeating trigger, every 30 seconds and a condition that VD1 is on.

Event #2
- for the trigger (IF), choose 'A recurring trigger happens', then choose 'The event will automatically trigger every...' and set the time to 30s
- for the condition (AND IF), choose 'A Timers Value is...' then choose 'A Timer's Value is less than...'. Select MotionX Timer and set the time to 5m, 0s
IF The event will automatically trigger every 30s
AND IF MotionX Timer's value is less than 5m, 0s
THEN (do what you want to do)
