Enable after x number of hours

[asif.shah]

Hello. This may not be a Solidcore related question but I will ask anyway.

Is there a way to place a system in enable mode (lock it down) after certain number of hours? I use tags to place systems in different modes as needed, however, sometimes I forget to go back and put them back into enable mode, so the systems are protected. I was wondering if there was a "time delay" option in Solidcore where I can tell it to put it in enable mode after x number of hours of whatever mode its in currectly. Thanks.

Hello @asif.shah

There is no time delay but you could potentially create an automated enable task (via server tasks for example) to run every few hours based on a tag or a query.

Thanks. I actually came up with a good way of doing this via tags, queries, and server tasks, after posting my question. If others are looking to do this: create a tag to unlock the system, run a query to find the unlocked event, then run a server task to re-lock the unlocked endpoint based on the unlock event.
