Delay (Green block) - a block for creating a time delay, a delay with valid parameters and sending a block with content or a block with actions at a precisely specified time.
Can be installed after a block with content or any other block.
Delay conditions:
Time Delay - Allows you to set a relative delay for sending a block. As soon as the block is activated, the timer is turned on for the amount of time set in the condition (delay interval). When the timer expires, the message is sent to the subscriber.
Interval delay - activation of the next block after a specified period of time, indicating the acceptable hours and days of the week for sending
To choose to send blocks on specific days of the week, click on the “All days” button - after which a list will open with the name of the days of the week - select the ones you need or leave as is.
Send at time - this field is used if you need to limit the sending of a block by time of day. Let's say you don't want the tunnel block to arrive to the client at night. To do this, you need to specify the allowed sending time, excluding night time. In the "Send at time" fields, indicate, for example, from 9:00 to 20:00. You can also select the time zone in which the restriction will apply:
Under this condition, if the block is activated at night, for example at 22:35, then it will not be sent, but will be paused until 9:00. At 9:00 the block will be sent. If the block is activated at the allowed sending time, for example at 12:55, then it will be sent with the set delay.
Send at a specified time - allows you to send a message at a specific time. You can specify Date, Time and Time Zone. If such a block is activated before the specified time, the tunnel will wait for the time to arrive and only then continue broadcasting along this branch.
Acceptable lateness. It is now possible to set the acceptable delay time for the Delay block with an exact date. If you set the setting to one hour, then a person who gets to this block whose time has expired an hour ago or more, then the subscriber will follow the connection from the red cell of this block. You can specify an acceptable delay of more than 24 hours.

If there is no connection from the red cell and a delay is set for the exact date, the user will stop moving through the tunnel after the expiration of this delay. |
