 ## Numeric state trigger
 
-Fires when the numeric value of an entity's state (or attribute's value if using the `attribute` property, or the calculated value if using the `value_template` property) **crosses** a given threshold. On state change of a specified entity, attempts to parse the state as a number and fires if the value is changing from above to below or from below to above the given threshold.

 <div class='note'>
 Crossing the threshold means that the trigger only fires if the state wasn't previously within the threshold.

+This type of condition attempts to parse the state of the specified entity or the attribute of an entity as a number, and triggers if the value matches the thresholds (strictly below/above, so equal excluded).
 
 If both `below` and `above` are specified, both tests have to pass.
