IF Block

The IF block is used to select the measured data of a data field from one or more devices of a specific device type.

Select the device type from the Device type drop-down list.

Select the data field that you want to input for the rule from the Data field drop-down list.

Select the device to which you want to apply the rule, either by 'Select from list' or using the 'Select from map' option.

Select from list

  • Click on the text box and then, from the list, select the devices one by one. A tick mark will appear next to each selected device. You can click again on a selected device to deselect it.

  • If you have selected only one device, its name will appear in the text box.

  • If you have selected more than one device (e.g., 3 devices out of 20), the text in the text box will show as 3 of 20 selected.

Select from map

This option only works if your devices have been configured with geolocation.

  • Click on the Open map button.

  • A map will open in a model box.

  • Zoom (Ctrl + Scroll) into the area where your devices are located.

  • You can use a combination of circle and polygon shapes to define areas where the device could be.

  • Once added, you can edit the name of a circle or polygon by clicking on the edit (pencil) button.

  • You can delete a circle or polygon by clicking on the delete (bin) button.

Clicking on the delete button will not remove the devices shown inside the shape from the map.

  • Once finished, click on the Save button in the map modal.

  • Click on the + button to add more IF blocks and apply boolean operators like AND and OR between them.
