How to create a Threshold sensor

Hi guys,

In this article we saw how to get the room's temperature.

Today let me introduce how to observe this temperature to know if it's above, below or within a specific range set.

Hardware configuration

1. Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5+ . It's a Z-Wave gateway to build up and manage your Z-Wave network.
2. Aeotec TriSensor . It's a Z-Wave sensor ables to monitor temperature, presence and light.

Software configuration

1. Home Assistant . I'm currently running version?2022.9.4 .
2. Z-Wave JS integration ?configured in Home Assistant. This integration allows you to control all the Z-Wave devices within your network via Home Assistant.
3. As soon as the?Aeotec TriSensor?is added to your Z-Wave network, it exposes the following entity?sensor.yoursensor_air_temperature.
