you use %session.AppTimeout which has a default of 900 (sec).

but SetCookie asks for a Time !
method SetCookie(name As %String, value As %String, expires As %String = "", path As %String = "", domain As %String = "", secure As %Boolean = 0, httpOnlyFlag As %Boolean = 0) 

I see from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13154552/javascript-set-cookie-with-expire-time
what string this might be.

My assumption - your 900 was just not recognized and the default (=session) was set
