Hello from Italy.  
I do have an alarm system form wich I can have a clean contact ( impulse ) when alarm start.  
I would like to turn on some light when it happen.  
So I need a trigger device to activate the automation.  
I was thinking to a Fibaro universal binary sensor but it doesn’t seems to be the right choice.  
Thank you for your reply
