Additional note with my updated KPA1500 flow
One other thing I added to my KPA1500 flow is when you click the off button the amp does not shut off until the temperature drops to 38c or lower. This allows me to shut down the amp without waiting

You¡¯re welcome. Please read the comment nodes in the flows by double clicking them to read comments. The VITA49 flow needs the ping node changed to the IP of your radio. That is the node that says

That is exactly what my updated Flex Radio and VITA 49 flows do. When there is no client connected Node Red sets the meters to zero. Note ¨C when disconnecting a client it may take up to a minute
