Event Rules and Actions
A benefit of the product's intelligence is its ability to notify you of or react to a
change in conditions. This event notification or reaction is an "event rule."
An event rule consists of two parts:
•
Event: This is the situation where the PX3TS or a device connected to it
meets a certain condition. For example, the inlet's voltage reaches the
warning level.
•
Action: This is the response to the event. For example, the PX3TS notifies
the system administrator of the event via email.
If you want the PX3TS to perform one action at a regular interval instead of
waiting until an event occurs, you can schedule that action. For example, you
can make the PX3TS email the temperature report every hour.
Note that you need the Administrator Privileges to configure event rules.
To create an event rule:
1. Choose Device Settings > Event Rules.
2. If the needed action is not available yet, create it by clicking
.
a. Assign a name to this action.
b. Select the desired action and configure it as needed.
c. Click Create.
For details, see Available Actions (on page 394).
3. Click to create a new rule.
a. Assign a name to this rule.
b. Make sure the Enabled checkbox is selected, or the new event rule
does not work.
c. In the Event field, select the event to which you want the PX3TS to
react.
d. In the 'Available actions' field, select the desired action(s) to respond
to the selected event.
e. Click Create.
For details, see Built-in Rules and Rule Configuration (on page 376).
To create a scheduled action:
1. If the needed action is not available yet, create it by clicking
. See above.
Note: When creating scheduled actions, available actions are less than
usual because it is meaningless to schedule certain actions like "Alarm,"
"Log event message," "Send email," "Syslog message" and the like.
