Hello  
first i have a trigger to avoid to get to many telegram so the Trigger 180Min will wait this time, this part work. But is there a way in the node config part to check how long the 180min are going on?

Second,  
the waiting for 180min have to be interupted at 5:30 AM and will get the next message as soon there is one.  
How to check if the reset injection did work? Or how the reset-injection-node have to be configured?

have a nice day  
vinc

Not sure about the first, the question confused me

The second you could have a debug that show time last triggered as below.

```auto
[{"id":"564c0344.615fe4","type":"inject","z":"6524ce52.cafd2","name":"","props":[{"p":"reset","v":"true","vt":"bool"},{"p":"topic","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"30 17 * * *","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","x":150.00001525878906,"y":1063.9999389648438,"wires":[["7e9720ad.01208","c3724858.a919d8"]]},{"id":"7e9720ad.01208","type":"trigger","z":"6524ce52.cafd2","name":"","op1":"1","op2":"0","op1type":"val","op2type":"val","duration":"250","extend":"false","units":"ms","reset":"","bytopic":"all","topic":"topic","outputs":1,"x":380.00001525878906,"y":1103.9999389648438,"wires":[[]]},{"id":"c3724858.a919d8","type":"debug","z":"6524ce52.cafd2","name":"","active":false,"tosidebar":true,"console":false,"tostatus":true,"complete":"payload","targetType":"msg","statusVal":"$moment().format(\"ddd HH:mm:ss\")\t\t\t","statusType":"jsonata","x":320.00001525878906,"y":1043.9999389648438,"wires":[]}]

@E1cid  
your Trigger-Reset-Node works Merci  
the other - would be nice there would be a counddown below the trigger button to see how long it have to go.

You could use the debug again to show when trigger will send. It's not a count down but will give you a time.

```auto

```

Two examples one for a resetting trigger when another message is received and one for when that option is not set.

Yes, the other debug adds 180 minutes and gives a time when the countdown will end.
