Ich habe einen Blueprint für einen Timer,
der in meinem Fall einen Teichpumpenautomatik steuert. Er wird in diesem fall zur Laufzeitbegrenzung eingesetzt
Automatik start Timer - Timer ist z.b. auf 5 Stunden gesetzt nach Ablauf der zeit wird Teichpumpenautomatik gesperrt und der Timer wird entweder zur eingestelleten Zeit oder Standard (00:01) Tagesreset zurückgesetzt
Es werden passende Helper benötigt
z.B. in meine Fall
input_boolean.teich_timer_start
input_boolean.teich_timer_stop
input_boolean.teich_timer_running
input_boolean.teich_timer_done
dadurch kann man den Blueprint mehrfach verwenden
Dann Zuordnung im Blueprint:
Start Trigger → 
input_boolean.teich_timer_start
Stop Trigger → input_boolean.teich_timer_stop
Running → input_boolean.teich_timer_running
Done → input_boolean.teich_timer_done
Dauer → “05:00:00”
Features
Zeitformat hh:mm:ss
Start (Taster)
Stop (optional)
Restart-safe (mode: restart)
Status running
Ergebnis done
Reset-Zeit frei einstellbar
Fallback → 00:01:00 wenn leer
Multi-Instance safe
Race-Condition geschützt
Trigger Auto-Reset
Stop während Laufzeit möglich
I have a blueprint for a timer,
which, in my case, controls an automatic pond pump. In this instance, it is used to limit the running time
Automatic start timer – the timer is set to 5 hours, for example; once the time has elapsed, the automatic pond pump is disabled and the timer is reset either at the set time or at the standard (00:01) daily reset
Suitable helpers are required
e.g. in my case
input_boolean.teich_timer_start
input_boolean.teich_timer_stop
input_boolean.teich_timer_running
input_boolean.teich_timer_done
This allows the blueprint to be used multiple times
Then mapping in the blueprint:
Start Trigger → input_boolean.teich_timer_start
Stop Trigger → input_boolean.teich_timer_stop
Running → input_boolean.teich_timer_running
Done → input_boolean.teich_timer_done
Duration → ‘05:00:00’
Features
Time format hh:mm:ss
Start (button)
Stop (optional)
Restart-safe (mode: restart)
Status: running
Result: done
Reset time freely adjustable
Fallback → 00:01:00 if empty
Multi-instance safe
Race condition protected
Trigger auto-reset
Stop possible during runtime
