Receive 8 is the time period ACE expects a response to a monitor. There is no explicit F5 configuration for this, this is set as per the interval configuration i.e. if interval is set to 5 then the bigip waits 5 seconds for a response before issuing a new one. Hope this makes sense.
I agree with Leo, not always easy to convert configurations this way, better off working out how you want it to look on the bigip. For example, in ACE interval is the time when a backend server is UP, and passdetect interval is the time when a backend server is down. On a bigip interval is the monitor time period when a backend server is down/unknown and, if Up Interval is disabled, Up too. However, if you configure Up Interval then this is the time period when a backend server is Up. See how things could get confusing.
As per Leo, understand when you want a monitor to be executed and timeout and then work out if you want a different interval for when a server is up already.
