Dragonfly automata

One of the nice things the Dragonfly can do by itself is act as a dedicated automata – that is, perform some simple actions as a result of external events – even with the PC shutdown.

In practice, this means we can use the Dragonfly to:

– check the AAG CloudWatcher relay for unsafe weather, closing the roof if unsafe

– monitor if the PC is “alive”, for instance resetting it if it’s not 

– check if the roof opens without a session being active (for whatever reason) and powering an alarm

Please check our “short tutorial” series to get a grasp of what can be accomplished with the macros.
