Trigger a flow if an action is repeated multiple times with in a set period of time

[dbs179]

Hi all,

I'm using Node Red with my Home Assistant and have a question I haven't been able to figure out. I want to change the profile of my Blue Iris NVR when motion is detected on a camera or cameras multiple times with in a set period of time.

I have the camera motions in Home Assistant and know how to get their states in Node Red, but I don't know to only trigger the next action (changing the Blue Iris Profile) if the state changes several times with in two minutes.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
