Controller Rules

The Controller Rules option enables you to set rules with macros. These rules enable the device to perform automated actions within the control panel, based on complex logical combinations of trigger. The macro has two parts:

When: Indicates a logical combination of conditions which must be true to trigger the macro.

You can use up to three conditions, combining them by AND or OR logic. You cannot combine AND and OR logic in one macro; you have to choose one.

Then: A list of actions which the system executes when the logical combination of conditions are true.

You can use up to three actions. When the conditions are true, the system executes the defined actions once, and in sequence. However, as this happens almost immediately, the order of the actions is only important if one of the actions is a wait action.
Wait actions enable you to carry out two separate actions with a defined time interval between them.

WHEN

Condition 1 is true.

AND/OR

Condition 2 is true.

AND/OR

Condition 3 is true.

THEN

Perform action 1.

Followed by

Perform action 2.

Followed by

Perform action 3.

The macros run from the control panel, and are not affected by the connection with MAXPRO Cloud. Macros are separate from the Rules in MAXPRO Cloud.
