A trigger initiates a series of actions that can be activated by an event, a press of a button or a preset schedule. The
triggers are listed as events that trigger a series of user-configured actions:
•
Custom Events – include four built-in triggers. Other custom events can be added via K-CONFIG (see
Section 8.1 ).
•
Keypad Events – add triggers to Keypad events by clicking a keypad panel button or knob on the master room
controller and auxiliary devices (see Section 8.2 ).
•
Monitor Events – add triggers to the monitor event by setting an incoming command that will onset a series of
user-configured actions (see Section 8.3 ).
•
GPI/O Events – add a GPI/O trigger to activate a series of user-configured actions following a controlled sensor
indication such as an alarm set, for example (see Section 8.4 ).
•
Timer Events – add timer triggers that will start a timer following timer stop/start states (see Section 8.5 ).
•
Query Events – query a controlled device to start a series of user-configured actions according to monitored
operation parameters such as projector lamp hours and the power status of the main display (for example, a
projector), see Section 8.6 .
Note that query Events will not appear on the Triggers list for devices that do not have Ethernet.
•
Sub Routines – when the same series of user-configured actions repeats itself in several action lists, you can
define a Sub Routine once and use it in all these action lists to save configuration time (see Section 8.7 ).
