<h3>Details</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This node can be used to create a timeout within a flow. By default, when
|
|
|
|
|
it receives a message, it sends on a message with a <code>payload</code> of <code>1</code>.
|
|
|
|
|
It then waits 250ms before sending a second message with a <code>payload</code> of <code>0</code>.
|
|
|
|
|
This could be used, for example, to blink an LED attached to a Raspberry Pi GPIO pin.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The payloads of each message sent can be configured to a variety of values, including
|
|
|
|
|
the option to not send anything. For example, setting the initial message to <i>nothing</i> and
|
|
|
|
|
selecting the option to extend the timer with each received message, the node will
|
|
|
|
|
act as a watchdog timer; only sending a message if nothing is received within the
|
|
|
|
|
set interval.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>If set to a <i>string</i> type, the node supports the mustache template syntax.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>If the node receives a message with a <code>reset</code> property, or a <code>payload</code>
|
|
|
|
|
that matches that configured in the node, any timeout or repeat currently in
|
|
|
|
|
progress will be cleared and no message triggered.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The node can be configured to resend a message at a regular interval until it
|
|
|
|
|
is reset by a received message.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Optionally, the node can be configured to treat messages with <code>msg.topic</code> as if they
|
|
|
|
|
are separate streams.</p>
