SWMM - Control Rules - Condition Clauses

A condition clause of a control rule has the following formats:

object id attribute relation value

Or:

object id attribute relation object id attribute

Where:

object - an object category
id - the object ID label
attribute - an attribute or property of the object
relation - a relational operator (=, <>, <, <=, >, >=)
value - an attribute value

Some examples of condition clauses are:

GAGE  G1   6-HR_DEPTH > 0.5
NODE  N23  DEPTH  >  10
NODE  N23  DEPTH  >  NODE 25 DEPTH
PUMP  P45  STATUS =  OFF
LINK  P45  TIMEOPEN >= 6:30
SIMULATION CLOCKTIME = 22:45:00

The objects and attributes that can appear in a condition clause are the following:

< /tr>

Object	Attributes	Value	Description
GAGE	INTENSITY	numerical value	rainfall intensity for a specific rain gauge in the current simulation period
GAGE	n-HR_DEPTH	numeric value	is the total precipitation depth of a meter over the last n hours, where n is a number between 1 and 48
NODE	DEPTH	numeric value
	MAXDEPTH	numeric value
	HEAD	numeric value
	VOLUME	numeric value
	INFLOW	numeric value
LINK or CONDUIT	FLOW	numeric value

	MAXDEPTH	numeric value
	VELOCITY	numeric value
	LENGTH	numeric value
	SLOPE	fractional value
	STATUS	OPEN or CLOSED
	TIMEOPEN	decimal hours or hr:min	duration that a link was in the OPEN or ON state or had its SETTING greater than zero
	TIMECLOSED	decimal hours or hr:min	time that remained in the CLOSED or OFF state or had its SETTING equal to zero
PUMP	STATUS	ON or OFF
	SETTING	pump curve multiplier
	FLOW	numeric value
ORIFICE	SETTING	open fraction
WEIR	SETTING	open fraction
OUTLET	SETTING	discharge curve multiplier
SIMULATION	TIME	elapsed time in decimal hours or hr:min:sec
	DATE	month/day/year
	MONTH	month of the year (1 - 12)
	DAY	day of the week (Sunday = 1)
	DAYOFYEAR	day of the year (month/day)
	CLOCKTIME	time of day in hr:min:sec	"TIME", "DATE", "MONTH", "DAY", " DAYOFYEAR", "CLOCKTIME"

On SOLIDOS (command SWMMCONTROLS), you must choose the appropriate object type to be able to select the desired attribute:
