Checking Battery Status Using a Button
Some Saltillo-provided vocabulary files already include buttons for
checking the battery status. For example: WordPower™ offers the option
from the last page of Groups, and MultiChat 15 offers the button on the
Device Tools page from the second page of “Things”.
To create a button that checks the battery status of both the device and
the amplifier, create a button on a vocabulary page that contains the
action “Battery Status”.
