We have an old(er) gas dryer that has a very annoying and loud buzzer that comes on at the end of every cycle. I would like to replace it with something a little more user friendly. I have an OmniPro controlling a Nuvo whole house audio system so ideally I would like to:
1) make an overhead announcement on the speakers when the dryer cycle has finished
2) send an email alert when the dryer cycle has finished
I would say #2 is more important than #1. Looking at online schematics, the buzzer looks to be an OEM Whirlpool buzzer that runs off 120VAC. I suspect I will need a 120VAC relay but looking for some input here on how to further integrate. I do have a CAI webcontrol at my disposal so I suppose I could use that to fire off an email, just not sure about how to integrate the relay with the webcontrol board.
Thanks
