How to create an alert in an industrial thing and alert message in mashup

[HG_10044239]

Hi everyone, 

I am new to Thingworx. Now I have an industrial thing and the properties contain some temperature data. I want to make an alert if the temperature is higher or lower than a given value. But properties are stored as 'string' which only supports "equal to' and 'not equal to' in properties and alerts. And also I want to add a text to show the alert. Thank you.

Hi bchandhary,

Thanks for your reply. I tried this method to create the alert. As I mentioned above only 'equal to' and 'not equal to' options are provided.

I just create a service. It might not be the best solution but it works. 

var noztemp=Number(me.NozReal);

if (noztemp<190)
{
me.NozAlertMessage="WARNING: Nozzle temperature is too LOW!!";
}
else if (noztemp>230)
{
me.NozAlertMessage="WARNING: Nozzle temperature is too HIGH!!";
}
else
{
me.NozAlertMessage="Nozzle temperature is OK!!";
}

I just use valuedisplay in mashup to show the message.
