I am trying to make a fan spin when a tags value is one and stop spinning when it is 0. I have a script that runs on startup and it works however once the value is changed the script no longer works (the fan won't stop). Is there a better way to do this? Thanks!

Animation for Symbol Factory In Perspective Ignition

You can do like @Matthew.gaitan has shown, that will definitely work, however, you can also just piggyback on IA’s own animation class as well.
