I have a program that runs to check the status of some sensors (mostly, are doors and garage closed etc).

 

If it fails I want it to notify me, now I can do a text message but I would prefer to have some lights flash up and down to notify me before I go to sleep.

 

The issue is the light that flashes, I can't find a way to return to it's prior state, on or off.

 

In normal programing I would store the state value / struct  run my flashing program and then restore the stored values.

 

Is there a way todo this?   I am on the current stable firmware.

 

Thank you,

You need v5.0.x to do this or keep track of the current state via a central program that is the only one to operate the device.

 

Some have used Network resources to feedback into the RET interface, effectively stuffing the level into a variable.

 

Network resource --> Var substitution --> ethernet --> ISY Rest interface --> variable
