Minimote buttons with Rule Machine

Is it possible to use any of the eight button combinations from a Minimote as an RM trigger?

I’ve got a Minimote paired correctly using @mattw’s instructions from Pairing Aeon Minimote.

And I can act on any button push/hold using either the standard HE button controller or @stephack’s Advanced Button Controller.

But nowhere do I see a way for RM to differentiate between the eight button inputs. (I don’t want to do it, because it’s messy, but I think that, in theory, I could use a button controller to flip one of eight virtual switches that correspond to Minimote buttons and then use those as input to RM.)

Thanks for any tips!

Define a trigger rule and choose the button capability. From there you can select your minimote, button number, and pushed or held.

Ahhh… Same old mistake by me. I keep forgetting about triggers in RM and that I have to pick at the outset. After two years on CoRE/webCoRE, I’m re-learning RM.

Thank you, Michael.
