[edit] Description

The Battery Monitor allows those with a battery powered Mac to watch for various changes in the batteries' state. As the the standard filtering in Proxi doesn't handle threshold monitoring, there are several options built into the trigger to allow you to define a threshold a particular value must cross before the trigger fires.

[edit] Settings

  • Trigger if (popup menu): The Battery Monitor settings operate in one of 7 modes as determined by the selected item in this menu. They are:
