+A more advanced use case could be to set the icon based on the sensor's own state like above, but when triggered by an event. This example demonstrates a binary sensor that turns on momentarily, such as when a doorbell button is pressed. 
+
+The binary sensor turns on and sets the matching icon when the appropriate event is received. After 5 seconds, the binary sensor turns off automatically. To ensure the icon gets updated, there must be a trigger for when the state changes to off.

 ### Self referencing
 
 This example demonstrates how the `this` variable can be used in templates for self-referencing.
