USB Signal Light Controlling

The action "USB Signal Light Controlling" allows you to control a signal light which can be purchased at JAM Software. You can use the signal light to monitor the status of a monitored server or to display a certain problem.

Please note that multiple sensors can all work on the same USB signal light. That is why the signal light checks, when the action is executed, the status of all the other sensors that have the same action configured. For example, if one sensor sets the signal light to "green" but another sensor sets it to "red" or "yellow" it will remain "red" or "yellow".

Note

The action can only be used when the global notifications are disabled.
