Sample project: If Then

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this example is to show you how to use the “If Then” component with a real example.

Preparing and loading the project in EVE Manager:

unzip the file;
open EVE Manager, go to the top left, File – Open – press “Ok” on the message that appears and select the file just decompressed;
Start the virtual machine or the Raspberry;
Download and Install the Logic by following this guide.

By accessing EVE Manager, after the project is uploaded, the components that are used to configure the project are visible in the “My Components” area:

1 If Then
2 switches

The “Water Sensor” switch will simulate a water detector instead the “Lamp” switch will simulate a lamp.

Access the If-Then component to see its configuration:

Our goal is to configure the “If Then” component so that when the water detector activates, the lamp turns off;
Operation’s condition: The lamp must be set with value equal to 1 (ON);
Primary condition: set the “Water Sensor” component with value 1;
Then: Set the “Lamp” component with the 0 value;
This configuration can be translated into simple words, If the water sensor is activated, then the lamp is switched off.”

Empty fields are these non-mandatory. For more information on the component configuration screen, we recommend that you read the guide that you find on the previous page.

The If-Then component not to be inserted in the user interface, in fact, you will find only the two switches.

The interface shows a planimetry where the two elements Lamp and water sensor are placed, as you can see from the picture below, the once the the Water sensor change its state to ON the Lamp immediately turns OFF.
