5.1.2 Set Rules
Rules give your devices the ability to interact with hIOTron IOT Platform. With just few clicks we
can add rules to particular pin and perform conditional operation without even writing single
line of code. Let’s add rule to existing channel Temperature from previous section.
Now click on Add Rule and we will be presented with a new window to configure rule on same
channel. The first step could be to rename rule then click on
+
button. This will enable us to
setup condition and act upon it so as to trigger alert messages.
Multiplying Factor: This value scales reading from particular channel. If we don’t keep
multiplying factor then data from temperature sensor could be just an raw analog adc counts.
But this information must be converted into
o
C and this can be done by adding multiplying
factor. Say for example: In this case, when we will connect LM35 Temperature Sensor to A2
Channels. We will get temperature data in the form of ADC counts. By adding multiplying
factor 0.1. We will covert that adc value in to
o
C which will be more useful.
