 Ahhh., The M1 doesn't but the M1 Gold does. That's mentioned on the very
last line of the specs ..

With that encouragement I looked some more at the docs which don't mention
how to implement analog inputs as far as I kind find.  How many bits of
resolution ?

I looked too at what was available of the explanation of the rule-building
process. Not many obvious ways to organize or check and important functions
seem to be missing. Can the rule set be downloaded and externally edited?
Can rules be added/changed while the M1 is running? If not, because each
rule is necessarily activated by threshold (change of state), not current
state, it might take 24 hours for a restart to make each rule do its
intended thing.
