    The value that is set should stay unless the device is changing it back for some reason.

    Hi Lohbihler,

    I need to know how can I set a coil value in my I/O device for 5 seconds?

    I try to use the point link, using the same point as source point and target point, but my code is not validated

    my code:
    TIMESTAMP = new Date().getTime();
    x=0;
    x.end(5000);
    return source.value;

    thanks for your patience

    regards,
    Mario

    No, that's not going to work. Here's what to do, assuming that you want to set the coil to "true" for 5 seconds.

    1. Create a point event detector on the point that fires when the point has been "true" for 5 seconds.
    2. Create an event handler for the event in 1) that sets the point to false when it activates, and does nothing when it deactivates.
