Wait Until

When an input is received the node will wait until the condition is met or the timeout occurs then will pass on the last received message. Any new input will reset the timeout timer.

Configuration

Entity ID required

The id of an entity to use for the comparison.

Custom ids can be inserted into the list by adding a # at the end of the id

Entity ID Filter Types required

  • Type: string

The property field will be checked against the value field using the comparator.

Timeout

The amount of time to wait for the condition to become true before deactivating the node and passing the message object to the second output. If the timeout is equal to zero the node will wait indefinitely for the condition to be met.

Entity Location

  • Type: string

The entity object can also be passed with the message object.

Check against the current state
