Hi,seems what you’re looking for is a timer.

Thank you for your answer! I’m not sure I understand what you did. I need a countdown form 10 second to 0 and I want it to stop at 0 then I want the alarm to start when the timer (countdown) is at 0.

Hey @jodebelle!

A few questions so we know exactly what you are trying to achieve:

• Are you displaying the time left on your countdown?
• If so, how accurate does the timer need to be?
• Are you needing help setting up your alarm event after your timer completes, or are you just having trouble with your event triggering?
• Can you share the rest of your blueprints so we can see what is calling your countdown as well as your alarm conditions?

Any additional specifics you provide may go a long way in solving your problem!

Hi,you could click the reply icon to reply.otherwise others don’t receive a notification.
and what the ‘set timer by event’ does is creating a timer and you give it a time.then it executes an event after the time runs out.it’s a handy tool.
