plink.exe - force timeout for remote operations

Have script which daily reading configs from bunch of network devices utilizing plink.exe. Time by time, some device have stucked internal process which provide backup data and plink instance (and thus whole script) stuck until CTRL+C is pressed. Is there any way to push plink.exe to set timeout for remote operations? Now only SSH protocol layer timeout are reported by plink.exe, but this is not my case because SSH connection and login runs over successfully, but remote command execution stuck whole process.

I cant find anything helpful in plink.exe help
