Drop messages that have not changed value
Problem
You want to drop a message if the value of its payload has not changed since the last message. For example, you have a sensor sending the state of a switch at regular intervals and you only want to know when the value has changed.
Solution
Use the RBE node (Report By Exception) to block messages
unless its value has changed.
Example
Discussion
The RBE can be used to drop messages unless their value
has changed. This is useful for detecting changes.
If the property being checked is a number, the node can also be configured with a threshold for how much the value must change for the message to be passed on.
