Hi
 
No, you can not. If a value is written to a terminal, it is also in the local variable.
What do you want to do? Describe more precisely what you want and there are maybe more ideas to come.

You might be able to simulate this with event programming and a second variable, that is send a value(signaling) to the first value, and inside of the event handle case, put a delay before you send a value to the final variable.  Some more details would help understand what you want to d0.  Other possibilities include state machines and queues with a implicit wait inside of the writer loop.

I agree with Becktho.  Please describe what you want to achieve (and why), so that we can offer appropriate suggestions.

Here is a solution using Paul's suggestion.  Event and value (signaling).
