Hey guys,
i recently installed my Shelly 2.5 for shutter control. All workflows should be build in Node Red. It's working out pretty good besides of one thing: i want to rotate my shutter lamella for 500 milliseconds to get another angle. Shelly API has a parameter for this but it's limited to at least 1 second which is too long.
I tried the following
node.send(msg);
setTimeout(function(){
msg.payload = "stop";
node.send(msg);
}, 3000);
It works with debug messages, but as soon as i connect the function to the next node, the second message disappears.
Flow
