Use below code:

var idleTime = 0;
var allowedIdleTime = 2000;
$(document).ready(function () {
        var idleInterval = setInterval(calculateTime, 1000); // 1 second
        $(window).focus(function (e) {
            if(idleTime>allowedIdleTime) {
                console.log('Last Idle Time was ' +idleTime+' ms' );
            }
        });
        $(window).blur(function (e) {
            idleTime = 0;
        });
});
function calculateTime() {
    idleTime = idleTime + 1000;
}

Here allowedIdleTime time can be set to avoid calling target operation before a specified interval.
