Triggered by new data event? **solved**

I see under event triggers, there is now "Triggered by new data" as an option. This is not defined anywhere in any of the documentation. Trying it out, it is firing the event very very frequently, every few seconds. So I'm wondering what new data is it triggering on? Is it any sensor data or something more obscure?

This event-type is used in other systems to reset a "stalled-station-data" event.

If station-data is not available after 'x minutes' time => raise condition and f.i. sent e-mail
When station data is received a "Triggered by new data" occurs => and one can remove raised condition.

OK, but my question is what data points are included in this "new data" trigger?

Any new weather data coming in from one of the connected stations triggers this.

OK. I wish I could select which data. Tried to use this for a mySQL output and it blows up the buffer with even just one field since it is firing every 2 seconds.
