Claim 9:
10. A setting tool configured to actuate a downhole component, comprising:
a piston configured to respond to differential pressure between a pressure of an environment radially inwardly of the tool and a pressure of an environment radially outwardly of the tool;
a setting member in operable communication with the piston, the setting member moveably responsive to movement of the piston, the setting member disposed to cause movement in the downhole component, during use; and
a metering module having a fluid pathway that provides the metering defined therein and providing a pressure drop along the fluid pathway, operably connected to the piston, the metering module allowing only gradual movement of the piston by venting to the environment radially outwardly of the tool, the fluid pathway of the metering module being unexposed to wellbore fluid prior to actuation.
