I’ve got a Ikea Rodret dual button with longpress and a Ikea Stoftmoln ceiling light.
Both support dimming.
I can set Relative Dimming in a flow but how do I get it to repeat quick, a regular delay is 1Sec which is way to long.. I want .25 or .3 sec per repeat.
I tried the [Chronograph](https://homey.app/sv-se/app/nl.fellownet.chronograph/Chronograph/) app which is supposed to install Timers and stopwatches but it
doesn’t seem to work as when I choose Timers it says no device found.
Any suggestion on how to get around this?
Can I loop the relative dimming level somehow?
TIA!

That’s not possible, since the RODRET only exposes a single trigger card (no separate held and released events). This means that it will only trigger once.

Timers, stopwatches and transitions are created on the fly

> Important: after you entered the unique name, you should select it to actually create a new timer.

It’s in the fine manual by the way
