The Flasher smartapp could fit your use case. However, due to ST issues it may not be working properly at the moment.

What happened to "The Flasher"?

There used to be a SmartApp that would flash one or more lights with the on, off, rate, and count programmable. I believe it was called ‘Flash’. Ever heard of this or a functional equivalent? I was using it with my V1 hub, but when I can’t find it now that I’ve switched to a V2 hub

Challenges with Flasher SmartApp

Hey folks - Wondering if anybody who has experience troubleshooting the Flasher app could take a look at this log and tell me what they think the issue is. I’m relatively new to the ST platform (and admittedly from another generation of programmers) so not sure what I’m looking for yet. The Flasher is set to flash three times when a door contact sensor opens. The door contact sensor is the NYCE hinge sensor and the light is the Iris Smart Switch in a wall socket with a lamp attached. Both device handlers from this community. I spaced the flashing frequency out to 2000ms in order to see if the flashing was happening too fast for the switch. Still wondering if that is the problem. Outcome is light is turned on once but that’s the end of it. The Flasher appears to trigger correctly. a3ae252…
