Display text alerts on OLED module

English

Hi,

I’ve searched everywhere but unfortunately was not able to find a concrete solution. I would like to display pre-configured alerts on my OLED for example to remind me to put the trash out, like it is showed on the picture:

Any idea how to configurate this alert?

Thanks a lot for the help!

Hi

You’ll need a platform like #HomeAssistant , #OpenRemote or #Openhab

After that, it’s just a matter of formulating your messages and pushing them into the memoText channel that these provide.

To clear the message, you just need to send an empty string.

How you create these messages is more interesting and there are hundreds of options.

######

As an example, this video uses the memoText channel.

Every time the Title of the media player changes, the text is simply pushed into the memoText

When the title goes blank, so does the display.

A rule in openHAB might look like this

rule "Now playing to memoText"

when Item TitleItem changes

sendCommand.OledMemoText(TitleItem)

end
