3. Click OK to accept the equation and close the Equation<br />

Builder window.<br />

Building a<br />

compound<br />

equation:<br />

This box within the Equation Builder window displays the<br />

trigger equation. To trigger a function in the instrument, an<br />

equation must be entered in this box.<br />

Build the equation using the defined conditions and the<br />

operators AND, OR, and NOT. Triggers must use at least one<br />

condition, or as many as four conditions. Each condition may be<br />

used more than once. You may also use the parentheses to group<br />

conditions, and add a duration.<br />

1. Define a single condition. These are listed as A through<br />

D. For example, highlight Condition A and set it up as a<br />

threshold condition when level is greater than or equal to<br />

three feet. Click Accept to use this as Condition A.<br />

2. Display the Equation view box by selecting the<br />

“Equation” line at the top of the Equation Builder<br />

window.<br />

3. Select the condition by clicking on condition button A, B,<br />

C, or D. For the example, this would be button A.<br />

<strong>Flowlink</strong> adds the condition to the Equation view box.<br />

You may also press the A button on the keyboard.<br />

4. Click OK in the Equation Builder window. The window<br />

closes and the equation is then displayed in the Trigger<br />

box.<br />

5. Click Apply to send the equation to the connected<br />

instrument.<br />

1. To build a compound equation, define additional<br />

conditions and add them with the condition buttons.<br />

Between each condition, or group of conditions when<br />

using parentheses, you must insert an operator. A single<br />

duration can be added at any level of the equation.<br />

2. The equation can be edited by placing the text cursor in<br />

the Equation view box. To insert an item in the equation,<br />

place the cursor where it belongs and use the buttons to<br />

add the item. To delete an item, first select it by doubleclicking<br />

it or by placing the text cursor directly before it.<br />

Then, click the Delete button.<br />
