Resetting Delay Node after starting

[Thomas Bruyere]

Hi,
I need to reset delay node after starting timer.

For example, I have to stop a server after 5min, except if ui button is pushed during this delay.
So when it comes, I need to stop delay node to stop the command to shutdown the server.

Is it possible to do this with another node?
Or adding this feature to the existing node?

Thx thomas

The trigger node may be a better bet for what you want, that can be set to output nothing on first trigger, then wait, then output something, and can both be extended or reset in the meantime.

Hi Dave,

I was wondering with the trigger node if it was possible to externally change the delay number via a function block.

I have seen it done with a count node I have it is set to increment but sending this to the node via a function block reduces the count by 5

msg.decrement = 5;

return msg;

With the trigger node I tried

msg.duration = 10;

return msg;

Although it doesn't change the delay value.

I am trying to allow the user to change the delay time of the trigger node via a dashboard.

Kind Regards,

Andre
