Thanks Edwin_D I will have a look and try to do it a different way! I’m not aware of all the different things I can use or try to get too, to do the processes correctly. The way I have tried so far is using my Blood Sensor like its a windows and in the real world this is not correct
It’s me to know how to do it in a little more guided way it.
If I were to pick how often a warning should occur while the problem persists far, I would not know as it depends of the results from my blood reading. In the real world for me, this can be up to an hour if it was just under 3.9mmols (72 mg/dL) and I could get away with it but it would be very annoying it keeps telling me until I was to just get it over the 3.9mmols to 4.0mmols (72 mg/dL)
I also have no clue how to pick a threshold sensor to do an automation. But will see by your links if I can!
I tend to learn by watching how to do it and then try to see how to vary it a bit by the Home Assistant Instructions!
I will see if I can try to understand the links you have sent me (Thank you!)
On my watch I have a button I select to turn off notifications for 20 mins so then this gives me time to try to get the level higher! Then If the level as not got higher after 20mins to tell me again.
I understand that it can take some time for blood levels to return to normal, but your question was to retry every five minutes. Luckily, if you check the alert documentation, you can specify for each repeating message how much time you want in between. So you could first send one, wait half an hour, alert again, then 10 minutes… The examples are in the docs, so that should not be hard.
I gave you the settings for the threshold based on the example you gave, so it should not be hard.
For the repeat frequency: You could even make two alerts, and have one threshold for medium level warning and another for high level warning, and then two alerts, the high level one warning faster then the other. Give it a go for one situation, and if it works expand on that.
I will try to study it this week! I also have another one doing the colour of the lights which is also doing weird things
Lights come on red now and I told it to do it after 10pm but looking at my settings now I cannot find where I did it last night and its showing me an old, setting!
It’s also not reliable as it will reset after I do a Home Assistant update! which is frustrating!
But it can work if done right I’m just not quite doing
ti right yet!
This is what I mean as in I’m ok on my level and know I’m going to be going lower when I’m awake! But a sleep I have no clues at all!
Thanks for your understanding too!
At least the light comes on red That’s a good start! And it seems to have gone off too on me going back to normal that is the other automation Im messing about with at the moment!
The other thing I don’t understand isI can see the colour in Yaml but not in the visual editor section! So I cannot change the colour.
Is there any way to move these posts to another topic?
It’s okay I figured finding it too!
Lastly, is ok to also add it into the configuration.yaml as well as do it in Automation
