I am confused with what is happening here.
Depending in the CPU temperature and a bit of other stuff, I want a RGB LED to blink depending on the message received.

There are 4 input messages:
0
1
2
3
and RESET
reset is used to turn off any/all indications.
0 means all is clear and is an indication a high temperature was detected but since then all is good.
1 the temperature is approaching shutdown temperature.
2 the temperature has remained high for a time and so isn't about to go down and so the machine will be shutting down.
3 is an indicator that the fan hasn't started. Ideally the fan comes on below this temperature and so it wouldn't get here. This is a prewarning that things may be about to get worse.
The blink times are about 2 seconds on all of them.
But when the fan stalls (and when it it started and gets the temperature back down to where it should be, the blink rate is like 10 seconds.
But if I press the inject nodes and simulate the inputs: things work fine.
This bit of code does the conditions 0 and 3.

The link out node goes to the input of that first block of code.
Conditions 1 and 2 are usually averted as I see the Fan stalled indication and go and give it a nudge and it is ok. (That's a whole other problem, I'm getting a new fan but ITMT)
And reset is when things have settled down and I don't need any blinking LEDs.
Normal temperaure range (with fan working) is 39 - 44 deg c.
So if it gets above 47, it sets off the Fan stalled warning and maintains it until the temperature gets back below 40.
