Using an RFID Tag's Magnetic Sensor to Monitor Garage Door

Post by iautomate »

Tip: You can use the integral reed switch of most of our RFID Tags as a sensor with Indigo. Here we show an image of a TGP-A tag, being used to monitor the postion of the garage door as a condition, because we only want the the trigger "Open Garage Door" to fire when the SUV is detected and then transfer a relay to control the garage door opener, only if the garage door is closed. We don't want to transfer the relay if the garage door is already open.

Trigger: SUV Tag Enters the Range of Reader One;
AND Device: Garage Door Positon Tag: The Magentic Sensor has been triggered is FALSE
| --ACTION-->Turn On Garage Door Opener [x] Auto Off after: .5s
