Name:	Type	Technical Name:	Default Value:	Descriptions:
entityId Port	Entity	entityId	0	Changes the attached entity dynamically
Threshold Port	Integer	Threshold	1	The alertness level needed to output the values on the Input port to the High port. If current alertness is less than this then the values are sent to the Low output port.
Input Port	Integer	Input	0	The group ID of the group to get the alertness from

Outputs

Name:	Type	Technical Name:	Default Value:	Descriptions:
Low Port	Any	Low	None	Outputs here all values passed on Input if current alertness is less than threshold value
