Is it possible to the raise sensor timeout >900 seconds?

Modified on 2025-06-10 20:48:52 +0200

Hello,

i am trying to monitor the size of a Folder via the Folder Sensor. The folder in question has millions of files in it due to bad file management of the correlating software vendor. Due to this, the sensor always times out. Is there a way to elevate the maximum timeout so that my sensor is able to read the folder in full?

Thank you very much.

Regards, Julian

Hi Julien

Unfortunately not. You could write a script that checks the folder and use it with a EXE/Script sensor, but if that's any faster - I'm not sure at all :)

Kind regards,
