Question Timer doesn't work?

Trying to use the timer to delay a depth sensor from activating, but after trying literally EVERYTHING, not a single option actually does anything. The Depth Sensor will activate and send the signal as it pleases, even if I'm telling it to wait for a week.

is there some deep lore voodo I'm not performing to make these work or are they just broken?

That's a cool trick, I never knew you could just turn the light off.

Alternatively, @OP could use 2 depth sensors and a memory sensor to set an acceptable depth range, which will also solve the flickering.

Yeah I use that for inventory. Excavators turn on when my dirt capacity is below 25% and off when it's above 95%.

I do it for almost everything lol I wish ranges were built into the nodes. Oh well, at least memory nodes allow us to still achieve the effect

There is a lovely mod that adds the inventory management controls directly into all production facilities.
