I am not understanding why this isn't working.

Ok, originally the message was in `msg.time` - and I realised it has to be `msg.payload`.

So with that, the `status` still isn't _working_.

Node-red version?

I put the `test` inject node and the `test` gets displayed.

# BUT!

On the right (same setup) the date is displayed.

Hhhhmmmm...

I suspect a temporary browser issue. Caching or something. Restart node-red, clear the browser cache and refresh the page.

Thanks.

Didn't think of that. (Brain failure)

Flushed cache tried again, no change.

Tried PRIVATE BROWSING.... Same.

Still not working.

(I'll have to try a different browser shortly)

But, just to see if I can see anything else....

The BLUE lines are helping you follow the wires.

See the RED line. `TEST` node.

You are seeing the `ON` message.  
But even on that `debug` node, the `msg.payload` is not being displayed.

I'll try another browser and share the results.

# OPERA

Ok, I was a bit slow with the screen shot.  
The `time out` node works.  
You can see the time (green lines)  
They _match_. Even check the top of the screen's time.

But `time in` is not working.  
I did notice the _circle_ in the `TEST` is empty where as the others are full.  
Yes, the `time out` node has `test` in it.  
But if you look a the node above it, the `TEST` text is blank and the circle is empty.

I pressed the `inject` node and got the `test` text to appear.

It isn't critical, but it does seem weird.  
Though I am using NR 3.0.2 and not the latest.

This is more to share what I am seeing is anyone else is using this version and seeing weird things happening.
