WWWAPI Device Monitor {v1.0} - Released March 8th

This has been designed as a Plug and Play version of the LAN Monitor VD. This new virtual device will just monitor the internet and can also monitor the device (raspberry pi, arduino, omega, etc) that is hosting sonos-api if desired. This version does not have any in-built notification options like the LAN Monitor VD 2.5. It has been designed to leverage the full range of notification and re-routing capability the

 {v1.0}  

This simplified monitor is designed for users that haven't or don't want to adopt the full LAN monitor but want to be able to leverage the notification queue capability of this Smart Message Hub scene

The default table in the virtual device is as follows

The virtual; device has already been set up to monitor the Internet (www.google.com)

If you wish to monitor a device hosting the sonos-api then modify the ip address to your setup (if you don't wish to monitor the sonos-api you can remove that entry from the table below and also remove the virtual device label that is displaying its status

 

If you wish to have offline/online status alerts set the alert = 1 for the respective device

 

There are just two configuration options

Please login or register to see this code.

Set to true of you wish the alerts to be sent via the Smart Message Hub

 

When you run the scene first or if you modify the table in the scene you will need to set this to true 

Please login or register to see this code.

** SET BACK TO FALSE ONCE COMPLETE TO RUN THE VD IN NORMAL MODE**

 

and that's it

Hi @AutoFrank ,

Hello @AutoFrank,

 

With update 4.590, the VD tell me that the system is offline, when it's obviously not.

 

Can you help me identify the issue?

 

Thanks
