fuel pump timer

Jon, ive thought of a new use for one of my prop 1 controllers, i thought it would be simple, but. What im trying to do is this.

I want to put a mom. push button on pin 6 (trigger 1) this will start a 5 min timer on pin0 (fuel pump). If button (trigger 1) is pushed again it will cut off,

(reset/goto main) I also want to add a second trigger (trigger 2) on pin5 or pin 7 this will only stop/reset program, (goto main). im figuring this will require state

or branch which is still rough for me, and out of my normal use. I usually modify old programs, for new uses, but couldn't find one for this.

Thanks for your help.

This program is not as bad as you think... with one caveat: using the same button to start AND stop can be tricky, you don't want the output oscillating.  This program uses BRANCH to handle the button states and gives the user two seconds before allowing a stop with the start button.  Also, to prevent a stop and immediate re-start, the Reset section forces both buttons to be clear.
