Event Methods
Most of the Event methods use the Event’s ID to retrieve information about an Event. The Event’s ID is
set when an Event is created, and is unique to the Event. The ID is re-issued when the system is powered
up or the reset button is pressed.
The index number of the Event within the Event list could change, depending on whether new Events are
added or existing Events are deleted.
