Can someone help me code an appropriate node that I can attach to an inject node that will send a message, wait a second, then send a second different message?
I am obviously not a coder. I can do some basic things with NodeRed and I know this is probably really easy, but not for me! Not sure which node to use or how to code the delay.
Thanks in advance!

```auto
Inject +--> message 1
+--> delay (1sec) --> change node (set up message 2) --> message 2
```

Looks like that should do it. I will try that and report back. Thank you for such a rapid response to my inquiry!

Or the trigger node is capable of sending two different messages with a delay
