I need to set Boolean datapoint based on result of variable number compared with constant. Here is how I think it should work, but it does not. Datapoint does not get updated regardless of variable value. What am I doing wrong?

Datapoint does not get updated

So it works only at script start. You need a trigger.

@paul53 Thank you, it works! I think that this concept is not described clearly in documentation

Really ?

@paul53 I miss general discussion about blocks execution, for example for repeatable action user must be using Trigger block, without Trigger block the command will be executed once on script start. This is very important in my mind.
