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

Overview

The External Notification Module 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 module settings are changed, a reset is required for them to take effect. :::

Settings

Setting Acceptable Values Default
ext_notification_module_active true, false false
ext_notification_module_alert_bell true, false false
ext_notification_module_alert_message true, false false
ext_notification_module_enabled true, false false
ext_notification_module_output integer 0
ext_notification_module_output_ms integer (milliseconds) 0

ext_notification_module_active

Specifies whether the external circuit is triggered when the device's GPIO is low or high.

:::caution To prevent damaging your device, double check your device's schematics before attaching to the GPIO pins and setting this value. :::

Specify High/Low GPIO triggers circuit

ext_notification_module_output_ms

Specifies how long in milliseconds you would like your external circuit triggered. Default is 1000. (Because of the way that defaults are handled in the protobufs 0 is interpreted as 1000)

Specify how many milliseconds to trigger circuit
