switch off button

Hi,

I would like to use a switch on/off button with specified time.

 

My criteria is switch on as user input and switch off after 5 seconds and reset back all the numerial and toggle switch to default value. 

 

Im having problem to do so. 

 

Thanks.

Hi fendy,

 

why do you use this InvokeMethod node? Why don't you simply write a zero to a local variable of your "numeric" control?

 

My criteria is switch on as user input and switch off after 5 seconds and reset back all the numerial and toggle switch to default value. 

When you want to have a certain step-by-step procedure a state machine would be fine!

Have states like "wait for user input", "output signal to hardware", "wait delay" and you will be fine…

Best regards,
GerdW

Hi Fendy,

 

Here is an example of a state machine. In the "Check Time" case, you can replace "Wait Event" with whatever states you want to do during the alotted time after the button press.On Timer.png
