Elements of Threshold Formulas
Example: Threshold Formulas
Some possible threshold formulas include:
• R > 1000
• (M > 5) OR (H > 500)
• (S > 100) AND (R < 10000)
In the last formula, an event is triggered if (the data is changing at the rate greater than 100 per second) or (the
value is less than 10,000).
A formula follows this basic syntax:
(Variable Relation Value) Logical_Operator (Variable Relation Value)
