Hi,

you didn't tell if you want the signal to remain at 5V after the delay.

The attached circuit is activated upon power on and delays both outputs. Adjust accurate timing using RV1.

Would it be practical in your case to run from a script rather than doing it electronically? For example using the SendKey method?

Hi AlPita,

nothing easier than that!

Here is your "circuit".
