6.
Select "Alarmed" since we want the PX3 to respond when the
selected contact closure sensor changes its state related to the
"alarmed" state.
7.
In the "Trigger condition" field, select the Alarmed/Open/On radio
button so that the action is taken only when the contact closure
sensor enters the alarmed state.
8.
Select "Activate Load Shedding" from the Available Actions list.
A Note about Infinite Loop
You should avoid building an infinite loop when creating event rules.
The infinite loop refers to a condition where the PX3 keeps busy because
the action or one of the actions taken for a certain event triggers an
identical or similar event which will result in an action triggering one
more event.
Example 1
This example illustrates an event rule which continuously causes the
PX3 to send out email messages.
Event selected
Action included
Device > Sending SMTP message failed Send email
Example 2
This example illustrates an event rule which continuously causes the
PX3 to send out SMTP messages when one of the selected events listed
on the Device menu occurs. Note that <Any sub-event> under the Device
menu includes the event "Sending SMTP message failed."
Event selected
Action included
Device > Any sub-event
Send email
Example 3
This example illustrates a situation where two event rules combined
regarding the outlet state changes causes the PX3 to continuously power
cycle outlets 1 and 2 in turn.
Event selected
Action included
Outlet > Outlet 1 > Sensor > Outlet
State > On/Off > Both (trigger condition)
Cycle Outlet 2
(Switch outlets --> Cycle Outlet -->
Outlet 2)
