Introduction

In this guide, we will show a quick step-by-step on how you can set up your KNOT to send an e-mail notification, whenever it detects a "triggered" condition reported by the TG-BT5-IN or TG-BT5-OUT tag.

As per tag's guides for iOS and Android, the tags have a built-in accelerometer that is able to detect free-falling, wakeup/movement, and tilted states. When the tag is set up to broadcast MikroTik format payloads and accelerometer triggers are enabled (using the MikroTik Beacon Manager app) → the tag will instantly broadcast an advertising payload/report whenever the trigger is going to be detected:

The payload's 21st octet will indicate which exact trigger was detected. You can view the payloads under the IoT>Bluetooth>Advertisng reports tab:

As per the screenshot above, the 21st octet is "04", which indicates, that the payload was sent when a freefalling condition was detected by the tag.

You can find more information about MikroTik format octet values by following the link.

Once everything is configured the following is going to happen:

  1. The KNOT will run a script on a schedule. 
  2. The script will "read/scan" the payloads that are shown in the IoT>Bluetooth>Advertising reports tab.
  3. If the stored/captured payload's 21st octet value equals the configured trigger value (which is set up in the script) → email notification is going to be sent.
