3.1.20 SETTINGS / RULES - TRIGGER
This rule is used to send a request over the Internet from your device to another device. The request sent by your
device is used to trigger an action on the second device, for instance to remotely turn on or off a power outlet, to close
or open a relay, or to send an alarm message (SNMP Trap, email, or Syslog).
FIGURE 3-21: TRIGGER RULE
Activated
This check box must be checked to activate the rule. It enables temporary rule deactivation while keeping all of its
settings for later use.
Rule ID
The administrator can create up to 255 rules, and the power switch automatically creates an ID Code to clearly identify
each rule. These codes start with the character “R” followed by a number from 1 to 255.
Rule Name
This field records the name that you want to assign to the rule. The name can be from 1 to 32 characters long, and it
can contain alphanumeric characters.
Rule Color
In this Drop-Down Color Picker, choose the color that you want to apply for the rule in the Rule Panel page (accessible
through Misc/Rule Panel) if the rule is triggered.
