Set a Global variable that has a count of the number of trigger fires. If greater than 1 then allow the macro to run which resets the trigger count. If it is twice within a time period then use time of day in the Global variable rather than a simple count. If the second trigger occurs within the time period run the macro. I would start off always invoking the macro and put the time compare logic in the beginning of the macro. Once you have the logic in the macro working then compress it into something that would fit in the Boolean field of the trigger.
