Learn how to set up Vutlan logic schemes: Adding logic schemes

Example

For example, we want to:

  • use an AC sensor to alert when power is ‘OFF’

  • alert when the power is ‘ON’ again

  • schedule an activity if the blackout is longer than the setup limit.

...

Now three triggers reflect the current state of the observed voltage. To inform the administrator, you can connect to their logic schemes by sending notifications. In the case of a Blackout, sending a notification will be repeated every half hour (use the "Repeat" field) until power is restored.

...

Example 2

For example, you have a telecommunication rack with servers and equipment. You need to activate fans inside a rack when the temperature reaches 36°C. If the temperature reaches 44°C you need to activate fans, alarm the siren for 90 seconds, and notify the administrator via e-mail and SMS.

1. Edit the thresholds of "High warning" and "High alarm" levels for the temperature sensor.  Set "High warning level" to 36°C and "High alarm level" to 44°C, with useless "Low" thresholds set to minimum.

...

2. Configure relay settings. Choose a name and set "Pulse duration", it determines the time at which the alarm will be activated.

...

3. Create "E-mail" and  "SMS" notifications. Follow the steps in the section: Creating notifications.

4. Go to the "Logic Schemes" menu.  Add 3 logic schemes as follows:

a. First logic scheme will turn on "Power-1 Fun" when the temperature reaches 36°C (high warning level).

...

b. Second logic scheme will turn on the "Power-1 Fan" when the temperature reaches 44°C (high alarm level). The "Power-2 Alarm" is switched to pulse for 90 seconds, as it was previously configured. SMS and e-mail notifications will be sent.

...

c. Third logic will turn off the "Power-1 Fan" and "Power-1 Alarm" when the temperature falls into "normal" ("Normal" level is between "low warning" and "high warning" levels. Thus below 36°C in this example).
