AlertProperty
Summary
The AlertProperty effect adds an alert that only exists at runtime (ie. only when ARDI-VE is running).
They are often used to drive cosmetic effects based on calculations that aren't being performed in your existing control or information management system(s).
Parameters
Property
Type: Property Name Default: None
The property to compare.
Comparison
Type: Text Default: ge
The type of comparison to perform. Must be one of the following values…
| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| = | Equal. Alert raised if the values are exactly equal |
| less | Less Than. Alert raised if the property is less than the value. |
| more | More Than. Alert raised if the property is more than the value. |
| le | More Than or Equal. Alert raised if the property is less or equal to the value. |
| ge | Less Than or Equal. Alert raised if the property is greater than or equal to the value. |
| in | Inside a Window. Alert raised if the property is greater than or equal to the value. |
| out | Outside a Window. Alert raised if the property is greater than or equal to the value. |
Value
Type: Float Bindable Default: 0
The value to compare against.
When dealing with the in and out comparison options, this value is a dash-separated range. For example, a range of 10 to 25 would be 10-25.
Note that you can not bind to a RANGE when your comparison mode is in or out
Examples
<alertproperty property="level" comparison="ge" value="80"/>
This creates an alert that will appear on-top of an asset once the level is greater than or equal to 80%.
<alertproperty property="pressure" comparison="le" value="240"/>
In this case, the alert activates when the pressure drops below 251.
