(action result).

State
+ Action
Result
Pre-conditions
Program the input and output events you want the Action to monitor or control.
Notes
• See
xGen Reference Guide for more details on Actions.
• Write/Plan out on paper what you want to create to make it easier to set up
Actions and associated settings.
• Actions can be used without programming an Action Result. For example,
outputs are controlled by setting them to monitor an action, when the Action
State is true the output state will follow.
