Is it possible to check a database value every ´n´ seconds and update a field in the view accordingly?

Question

I would like to be able to display a view which checks a given database field, and depending on its value displays ENABLED or DISABLED, but that updates the status every ´n´ seconds. sort kind of online activity monitor. Is that possible in Odoo?
If so, where could I look for more information on how to achieve that? I am specifically looking for information on how to program/define the "update" action.

You need to use some kind of auto refresh module for views, that refresh the data and also the view for changes. I just finish and tested the migration of a module mine that do that features for several type of views: list, form, kanban, calendar, graph
You can try it by installing:
https://github.com/aek/odoo_public/tree/8.0/addons/solt_autorefresh
After install and page refresh you just need to specify a value in seconds for the field auto_refresh of the Odoo Action. After that if you open any
