Creating a Delay in Actuating a Solenoid

We have two Pneumatic Solenoids that are actuated using the trigger button on either joystick. One solenoid controls a gate and the other solenoid controls a platform that can be tilted.

The goal is that we lower the gate about 500ms (1/2 sec) before the platform tilts.

Getting both solenoids to actuate at the same time is easy enough. However, getting one to actuate, then wait for 500ms and then actuate the second one is a more difficult problem.

If anyone has a starting point here we could use the help.

Sean
