Enable a switch

[Nilpferd]

I would like to start the power supply of a NAS with a switch. To avoid activating the switch by mistake I would like to attach another switch to enable the first one for i.e. 5 seconds. after the 5 seconds no more activating of the first switch should be possible. On the other hand the status of the first switch should be ON also after the enabled time until shut off manually.
Any ideas to help me please?

Or use the built in enabled property to actually disable the switch, no context needed or switch node.
