I feel like I've seen a thread that references a solution to this, but search fails me. I don't see a battery status exposed for the triggerlink nodes, but my goal is to receive a notification when it is time to change the battery. Any ideas or links are welcomed. EISY and TriggerLink 2421 .42

TY

I haven’t used triggerlinc but as I recall they are like Insteon leak sensors, you create programs that look for a daily I’m alive signal and if it’s not sensed, it’s likely a failed battery.

I do not have much experience with programming on EISY but below is a framework, I know it is incomplete and any pointers are appreciated. Seems like for battery powered device such as TriggerLink, there would have to be some type of additional IF?

BackDoor - [ID 005C][Parent 0001]

If

'Main House / Sensors / BackDoor' Responding is False

Then

$Battery_LOW = 1

Else

- No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Still just a framework, I will build this out with some detail but this is my current approach based on u/paulbates. I think the idea below is to not inform if things are OK, but set variable (which informs downstream) if the heartbeat condition is not met.

Not exactly sure how to test unobtrusively, so any feedback is welcomed.

BackDoor - [ID 005C][Parent 0062]

If

'Main House / Sensors / BackDoor / Back Door-Heartbeat' Status is Off

Or 'Main House / Sensors / BackDoor / Back Door-Heartbeat' Status is On

Then

Wait 25 hours

Else

$Battery_LOW = 1
