Delay is in seconds. To have ships show up at the start you have to set their wave to 0 and their delay to 0. Wave 2 will come in when wave 1 is dead.
What follows may not be quite related to your questions but since I am not fully certain of what you're asking I can't be sure if this answers one of your questions. If it's too confusing, don't worry about it:
What I cannot remember is whether ships that haven't arrived yet count as dead for that but I believe they do. So, let's say you have it set to some spawn ships in wave 1 with 0 delay, some more ships in wave 1 with 3000 delay and some more ships in wave 2 with 0 delay. If I recall correctly, if the ships wave 1 0 delay ships die before the wave 1 3000 delay ships spawn, it will move right on to wave 2 however the wave 1 3000 delay ships will also spawn after the time is up. This will cause wave 2 to spawn before wave 1 is completely destroyed and the rest of wave 1 to spawn sometime during wave 2. In short it screws things up and you should be careful about how you combine waves and delays and make sure to playtest your encounters a few times to ensure that they work..
