Other Event Options
Group Name
To help organize Events into meaningful groups, a Group field is available. Enter any text into this field.
On the main Event Manager page, you can click on the Group label at the top of the Event list’s Group
column to sort the Events by their Group name.
Execute Actions Concurrently
When the “Execute actions concurrently” check box is CHECKED, all the actions associated with the
Event will be executed concurrently at the time the Event is triggered. Use the Action’s “Delay By” value
to offset the start time of a particular Action.
If this check box is UNCHECKED when the Event is triggered, its actions will be executed sequentially,
one at a time, and in the order displayed on the Event Manager web page. The next Action in the list will
not start until the previous Action has fully completed. Setting an Action to execute infinitely will prevent
any Actions listed afterward from running.
Expression
When the “(expression)” check box is CHECKED, the value specified in the “Trigger value” text box will
be parsed as an expression (page
). When the expression evaluates to a value not equal to 0, then the
Event triggers and executes its Actions.
If the “(expression)” check box is UNCHECKED, the value specified in the “Trigger value” text box will
be considered a constant.
Trigger Value
This text box is used for Events that are triggered by matches on a user-defined constant or expression.
Like Variables, constants may be strings, numbers, schedules, or ranges.
To trigger an Event using an expression, the result of the expression must be resolved to an integer value
not equal to 0. An expression that results in a string value will not trigger unless the string can be
converted to an integer value that is not equal to 0, e.g.
“Hello”
won’t trigger, but
“3”
will.
Remote Events
When connecting two or more WACIs up to a system, one of the WACIs can be used as a controlling
WACI. The controlling WACI monitors the state of the remote WACI, and triggers the remote Event on a
change in the remote WACI’s hardware or a change in one of the remote WACI’s Variables. To make a
remote Event, check the “Remote” check box and specify the host name or IP address of the remote
WACI. To make setup easier, make sure both the controlling and remote WACIs are connected to the
network and powered up.
