You need an event that repeats an interval of 10 seconds. You send a delayed message in the OnReset trigger to initialize the loop. The OnMessage receive the message and sends instantly a delayed message again. Then you can create an instance of the object in the same trigger.

Thank you for your help! How can I create an instance of the box which belongs to the basicFR?

Hi @Yue Y, you can select the "Create Flowitems" underneath the "On Message" trigger that Joerg talked about.
