Once per minutes

Block Name : Once per minutes
This block can pass once in a certain period of minutes. It uses the server time and counting of minutes starts from 00:00 at the day when the program is started. The block passes initially.For example, if you have 20 minutes period, then the block can pass between:- 00:00 and 00:20
- 00:20 and 00:40
- 00:40 and 01:00
- 01:00 and 01:20... and so on.But if you use period that can't fit into an hour, then you can get shifted signals.
Hello everyone...
can someone help me with this part i did not understand what it means with an example. thank youLet's say you use 7 minutes period, then the block can pass between:
- 00:00 and 00:07
- 00:07 and 00:14...
- 00:49 and 00:56
- 00:56 and 01:03
So, it's better to use periods that follows the next condition:1440 / period = whole number(1440 is the number of minutes in 1 day)

@cocco77 You can use the 'on timer' tab instead and then establich the amount of time (in seconds) your actions should be executed.

@cocco77 Firstly you need to create a constant you can use to insert hoow many second will have to passe between executions. Then you use this block on top of the whole structure to be executed:

Again, you need to do this on the 'on timer' tab.
