Is it possible to have a sound file played when the data changes? For example when a counter is increased we want to hear once sound and then when the counter decreases we would like to hear another sound.

Thanks,

Hi,

I think that's not possible since there is no API for the power gadgets to allow that kind of customizations.

Actually, how are you using PowerGadgets?  Are you using a .ps1 PowerrShell script and passing that to one of the out-* cmdlets using a refresh value?

Yes, I do think you can set up such a audio alarm using a trick like I do HERE with global variables.
