6.1. MessengerRule Editor

The Rule Editor is a tool to create a “rule” le that is used by the BS1500 to

control the built-in Messenger functions. The Messenger function allows the

start of one or more actions based on an incoming measured value,

if its associated condition is met.

The available actions are the transmission of an e-mail, the transmission of an

HTTP request and an SMS text message.
