Combining AND with OR Logic

If necessary, you can combine AND logic with OR logic to create events that are triggered by complex sets of If Conditions. When the event’s Logic Type is set to “AND” (default), a lower case

“and” will appear at the beginning of each additional If Condition. To add an “OR” statement to the

AND type logic, click on the last If condition and select “OR” from the pop-up menu. This will add a line with an upper case “-OR-” as a separator below the If Conditions. You can then add more If

Conditions as needed.

In the following example, the Hallway Lights will only turn on if A-1 and A-2 are both on OR A-3

and A-4 are both on.

//Hallway Lights

If

X10: [A-1] Family Room Lights On

and X10: [A-2] Holiday Lights On

-OR-

X10: [A-3] Living Room Lights On

and X10: [A-4] Dining Room Lights On

Then

X10: [A-7] Hallway Lights On

Else

X10: [A-7] Hallway Lights Off

Likewise, you can separate sets of “or” conditions with an “-AND-” statement. In this case, both

sets of If Conditions must be true in order to trigger the Then Action.

In the example below, the Holiday Lights turn ON at sunset and OFF at sunrise from Dec. 16 –

Jan. 4.

//Holiday Lights

If

Date is After Dec 15

or Date is Before Jan 5

-AND-

TIME: Time After Sunset Sun,Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat

or TIME: Time Before Sunrise Sun,Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat

Then

X10: [A-2] Holiday Lights On

Else

X10: [A-2] Holiday Lights Off
