Hi Dmorrrrow5,

PRTG offers three different options for the Connection Status Handling:

  • Show alarm for all "disconnected" states
  • Show alarm when disconnected, but ignore when deactivated
  • Ignore all "disconnected" states

You can then create a new notification to get notified if the sensors change their status.

Best regards, Felix
