The count procedure appears to be working well.

Thanks Adrian for your help.

Going off what I could deduce I came up with this. It needs to be proofread
and is not tested.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION monitor_install() RETURNS trigger AS $$

DECLARE
dev_ct integer;

BEGIN
SELECT count(*)INTO dev_ct FROM p_id_p_id.devices WHERE new.mon_function =
p_id.devices.device_number AND
(p_id.association.monitoring_fluid = p_id.devices.fluid_id OR
p_id.association.monitoring_fluid = p_id.devices.pipe_id)

IF dev_ct > 0 THEN
RETURN NULL;
ELSE
INSERT INTO p_id.devices (device_number) VALUES (New.mon_function) ;
END IF;
END;

$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

create trigger monitorinstall after update on p_id.association
for each row execute procedure monitor_install();
