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 />
