Delayer Tool

The delayer tool delays all incoming values by a fixed or variable time before the value is sent at the output.

Configuration

Delay

In the configuration, enter the delay time.

Possible time units include:

• Milliseconds (it is recommendable to not to use too small values here.
  The smaller the value, the more inaccurate the actual delay)

• Seconds

• Minutes

• Hours

• Days

Delay Type

• Fixed Delay
  Equals the delay time

• Random Delay
  On every incoming value, a random delay between 0 and the delay time will be calculated.

In order to avoid queues including too many events, the number of parallel delayed values is limited to five.

Thus, the tool does not accept any incoming values as long as five values are already delayed.
