Sorry if I am in the wrong section, new to this layout. Been quite some time since I posted.
Someone created this code many year ago but I never got around to trying it. I wanted to have a way to get a visual alert with a light to flash say 4 times whenever a specific scene was triggered.
The code works except for the fact that it never stops flashing! How do I get the code to stop running. I have no programming skills, just know how to copy and paste. Should I just create a multiple on/off scene with delays instead? Would still like to know how the code should look if it’s possible to end it. Is it as simple as removing “Else go on” to end it?? Thanks for the help in advance :

function BlinkOn()
luup.call_action(Call,Do,{newTargetValue=1},Device) -->BlinksOn
if (Run == "1") then luup.call_timer("BlinkOff",1,Secs,Nil,Nil) end
end
function BlinkOff()
luup.call_action(Call,Do,{newTargetValue=0},Device) -->BlinksOff
if (Run == "1") then luup.call_timer("BlinkOn",1,Secs,Nil,Nil) end
end
if (Run == "1") then Run = "0" --> NewClick while running=Stop,i.e.Run=0
else Run = "1" luup.call_timer("BlinkOff",1,Secs,Nil,Nil) -->Else go on
end
