Set variables to temperature, wattage, etc.?

I'd like to setup my isy-99i to email me the wattage of a device using imeter, or temperature from thermostat.

 

Is there a way to use a program etc. to set a variable to the readout of a device so I can send an email using it?

 

The only way I can think of is to make 500 programs for each wattage, and 40 or so for each degree... i.e. if temp = 71, set variable = 71, if temp = 70 set variable = 70... seems overkill..

binaryman,

 

You do not need variables. You can have a couple of programs with the thermostat or iMeter in the condition (say above or below some threshold), then use Customized Emails and use ${alert.action} variable in the email.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Michael, Where is the use of ${alert.action} documented?

 

Looked in the wiki, no luck. I am currently using it but interested in what other options there are.

 

Thanks,

John
