Is there a simple way to set up an event covering a range of devices?
For example, I'd like to get an email message if any z-wave "notification" device gets a value of "3" (Tampering Cover Removed.) For the sake of argument, assume I have a large number (50+) of door/window sensors.
I can create 50 distinct events, one per device, that does this. Or, I can create a single (massive) event that checks all 50 devices, combining the conditions with "OR." Both of these solutions would be clumsy and difficult to maintain.
Ideally, I'd love to set a single event with the condition of:
If any device has a device string of "Z-Wave Home Security" (which is the string the z-wave plugin assigns to the notification command class) and has it's value set to 3 (or "Tampering Cover Removed"), send me an email. It'd be an extra bonus if the email could tell me which specific device tripped the event.
Can this be done (without a plugin)?
If not, is there an existing plugin that can accomplish this (without creating a ton of events)?
Thanks
