Example A: With "(Condition1 AND (Condition2 OR
Condition3))" the output will trigger only if Condition2
or 3 (or both) is in effect at the same time as
Condition1.
Example B: With "((Condition1 OR
Condition2)
AND
(Condition3 OR Condition4))" the output will
trigger if at least one item from each side of the "AND"
is in effect at the same time.
Example C: If you start with example B, right-
click Condition1, select "Insert Operation on
right" , and set it as an AND function, you will
have: "(((Condition1 AND NewCondition) OR
Condition2) AND
(Condition3 OR
Condition4))".
The equation would be evaluated in this order:
1) C1 AND
New; 2) Result1 OR C2; 3) C3 OR
C4; 4) Result2 AND
Result3.
Note: The deepest-nested brackets are analyzed first.
Equations with Cadence (pulsing)
To obtain a pulsing output, System - Cadence
functions must be "ANDed" with the portion of the
equation to which they apply. If all conditions of the
equation are to cause a pulsing output, the cadence
function should be set up first, with everything else
appearing within a pair of brackets on the left or right.
Tip
: "ANDing" different cadence selections (or none)
with the various segments of an otherwise "OR"
equation allows a single output to respond differently
to different types of events.
For one type of cadence for an entire equation
(for example):
Set up a System - Cadence function first;
Also See: "Cadence (Getting the Output to Pulse On
and Off)", previous/above.
Right-click within it, and select Add
Operation on right;
Set up the second operation as desired,
being sure to use an "AND" operator;
Insert any other operations by right-clicking
on segments to the right of the cadence
function (not within the cadence function
itself).
