I use a ACDB-7000A as a doorbell button, which triggers a flow in Homey. The following things are about to begin:

- Homey plays a doorbell sound.
- Homey says that someone is ringing the doorbell.
- Multiple push notifications are sent via Pushover.
- Homey is turning green.
- A screenshot of my IP camera is being sent via Telegram to my iPhone.  
_See attached screenshot._  
**So far so good.** But the whole problem is, that sometimes it starts this flow only once per push. But most of the time, it starts this flow multiple times in a second. You probably could imagine that this is quite annoying. Would there be a way that it is possible to start this flow per push only once every 10-15 seconds for instance?

Thanks a lot!  
Pim

I made a better logic Boolean for this. When doorbell is pushed and Boolean is false then do what u wanna do and set Boolean to true and (after 5 seconds) set Boolean back to false.

Hello Rocodamelshe,

Thank you for your fast reply! Do you have a screenshot of how boolean works? I never used them…

Ok, here we go:  
Download the [Better Logic app](https://apps.athom.com/app/net.i-dev.betterlogic) from the Appstore.  
After that got to Homey settings and select Better logic.  
There u make a Boolean. Name it whatever u like.

Click “add variable”.

After that u can make a flow like this:

Hi,  
This can also be done without using better logic, just use the Flow card with Turn flow off and turn flow on after 5 sec.
