In order to get notified when temperature exceeds certain value, or any other condition is met, use the setup scenario below.

Send notification when temperature exceeds 25 degrees

  1. Create virtual device (Menu → Settings → Virtual devices → + (or Add virtual device) → Switch
  2. Set name "Notification"
  3. Set device type = Emergency:
  4. Setting Emergency device type will automatically pre-define correct icons and names for On and Off states:
  5. Open details of this new virtual switch and select Add a new smart rule
  6. Select smart rule Equation

  7. Set smart rule Equation to turn on your virtual emergency switch if the notification condition is met.
    In our example, we are checking if one of temperatures (Temperature 1, Temperature 2) is higher than 25ºC. Also, once this condition is met, we set minimum duration to 30 minutes, so that we don't receive notifications too often.

    SETTINGS   INFO   LIMITING CONDITION

    Variables

    Temperature 1
    Temperature 2


    Te = 21.8ºC
    Te1 = 22.3ºC

    Equation

    (Te > 25) or (Te1 > 25)


    Actions

    If result is TRUE, perform following actions:

  8. Open detail of device Notification and add smart rule "Notification"

  9. Set smart rule Notification to provide proper feedback when temperatures are higher than 25 degrees:

    ← NotificationRename
    SETTINGS   INFO   LIMITING CONDITION

    Send notifications when these sensors change:

    Notification

    + Add sensor


    Notifications

    Notify if turned on

There are more ways to setup push notifications:

  • Smart rule Device error notification sends notification always when one of specified devices is in error state
  • Smart rule Simple alarm sends push notification when there is a motion detected on one of specified sensors. It can be door/window magnet, or motion sensor
  • Smart rule Alarm can have push notification defined for each phase



  • No labels
