If Statement

[jgalu62]

Have an two rules that control the temperature, one when the security pane is armed and one when its disarmed. The existing rule that when the alarm relay is disarmed it turns the AC to a preset level I am looking for a way to "not" turn on a thermostat "IF" the thermostat was Off to start with.

Current rule without the IF statement is below. Not having much luck with getting this to work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You should be able to use a simple conditional that says basically IF thermostats:OFF exit rule.

Here's one (not a simple conditional, a regular if/then, but same idea) I use to check whether the heat is on or off before I turn on or off the AC...

If I understand, why not use a required expression Thermostat not off
