:::warning GPIO access is fundamentally dangerous because invalid options can physically damage or destroy your hardware. Ensure that you fully understand the schematic for your particular device before trying this as we do not offer a warranty. Use at your own risk. :::

:::note This plugin requires attaching a peripheral accessory to your device. It will not work without one. :::

Overview

The External Notification Plugin will allow you to connect a speaker, LED, or other device to notify you when a message has been received from the mesh network.

:::tip Once plugin settings are changed, a reset is required for them to take effect. :::
