My forum

I am having a problem. I have set up an alarm system in our house and I use a Android device as an alarm central, this device has Tasker, Autoremote and Remotestick installed.
Since the device runs on batteries and I don't want it to be charged all the time I have set up a profile in Tasker that checks the battery status. If below 10 % a Nexa on/off turns on and the device gets charged. When the battery status is 100 % the Nexa on/off turns off. It all works like a charm.

One thing though. I want the device (my "Android alarm central") to send a push notification or something similar to my other Android devices (that also have Tasker, Autoremote and Remotestick installed), telling them that the alarm central is charging, and when the charging is done. I don't want to send a sms or an email. How can I solve this? I can't find any good way to send a push notification to my other devices from this device.

My thought was to use the Autoremote url (https:/ /autoremotejoaomgcd.appspot.com/sendmessage?key=[MY_KEY]&message=[MY_MSG]) but I can't find where I should put that url string to be triggered.

Make two events on live.telldus.com
Trigger=Nexa device turns on -> Action=http://autoremote....
Trigger=Nexa device turns off -> Action=http://autoremote....

Make sure to only use http instead of https in the AutoRemote link as Telldus don't support https yet.

You have to have the PRO-subscription in Telldus to use the http action in events (if I'm not mistaken)

Thanx! Yes, that solution came across my mind _after_ I found another more complicated solution where I in Tasker add the task 'Browse URL' under 'Net'. It works that way too, but I think I will change to the other, more simple solution. Yes, I have PRO and is indeed using a lot of its functions already.
