This component can update controls with the result of an expression, optionally populating the expression result as a datum property.
Once installed, a new Control Updater Datum Filter component will appear on the Settings > Datum Filter page on your SolarNode. Click on the Manage button to configure filters.
The screen shot shows a filter that would toggle the /power/switch/1
control on/off based on the
frequency
property in the /power/1
datum stream: on when the frequency is 50 or higher, off
otherwise.
Each filter configuration contains the following overall settings:
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Service Name | A unique ID for the filter, to be referenced by other components. |
Service Group | An optional service group name to assign. |
Source ID | The source ID(s) to filter. |
Required Mode | If configured, an operational mode that must be active for this filter to be applied. |
Required Tag | Only apply the filter on datum with the given tag. A tag may be prefixed with ! to invert the logic so that the filter only applies to datum without the given tag. Multiple tags can be defined using a , delimiter, in which case at least one of the configured tags must match to apply the filter. |
Control Configurations | A list of control expression configurations. |
Each control configuration contains the following settings:
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Control ID | The ID of the control to update with the expression result. |
Property | The optional datum property to store the expression result in. |
Property Type | The datum property type to use. |
Expression | The expression to evaluate. See below for more info. |
Expression Language | The expression language to write Expression in. |
- Source ID — This is a case-insensitive regular expression pattern to match against datum source ID values. If omitted then datum for all source ID values will be filtered, otherwise only datum with matching source ID values will be filtered.
See the SolarNode Expressions guide for general expressions reference. The root object
is a DatumExpressionRoot
that lets you treat all datum properties, and
filter parameters, as expression variables directly.
