Notifications? #11

Open cambmint opened 3 years ago

cambmint commented 3 years ago

A slightly different area to extra sensors, but another one for the wishlist: notifications on low batteries in sensors would be a useful feature.

Do other alarms - ones programmed into the Console - get transmitted ?( I recognise low/high limits can be handled directly in HA.) Also, are the Console "Weather Ticker" messages accessible or merely local to the Console?

Not priorities, though! Thanks.

That's something I want as well and the ISS even transmits a battery flag, but of course it isn't documented what these values represent. You can see the value in the "ISS Status" sensor under the "Battery" attribute. If you notice a value that isn't 0, be sure to tell me about it so we can figure out which values represent what state. Once I know how to interpret those values, adding a notification would be easy.

I suspect these are only available on the console. At least I haven't seen anything like it in the API.
