On your asset overview page, click on the "Rules" tab:

On the Rules page, you may find a set of default rules associated with the commodity stored in your asset:

Click "+ Add Rule" to create a new rule or use one of the icons on the right side of an existing rule to activate/deactivate, edit or delete the rule:

Clicking on "+ Add Rule" will open the next pop up:

You can choose between rules related to a specific "Condition" (e.g. temperature/moisture of grain, ambient temperature or relative humidity, etc.) or "Connectivity"-related rules which will monitor the status of your devices (sensors, repeaters, gateways, etc.) for changes and get triggered accordingly.

Condition Rules:

In the pop-up window for new condition rule creation, you can set a name, and, through a set of drop-down options and values, describe a situation/ condition which will generate notifications and/or send you notifications via email and/or change the state of an actuator (e.g. grain conditioning machinery or visual/optical alarm). Press "Save" to create your rule.

In the example below, the user chooses to receive an in-app notification, an email and turn on the fans when the product temperature gets over 100°F (37.7°C) in a period of 48 hours:

Connectivity Rules

In the pop-up window for new connectivity rule creation, you may set a name for the rule, choose to monitor the status of one or more of your devices (e.g. gateway or sensor(s)) in order to generate in-app notifications and/or email notifications, and/or take decisions about the existing actuators (e.g. grain conditioning machinery or visual/optical alarm). Press "Save" to create your rule.

In the example below, the user chooses to receive an in-app notification, an email and turn OFF the fans if the gateway gets inactive (i.e. is not reachable by the platform for any reason) in a period of 5 hours. In such a scenario the user will not keep running the fans without having full remote control over the machinery:
