TB8100 Service Kit User’s Manual
Task Manager 11
Important:
Override actions only enable a function if the base
station is already configured for that function using the Service Kit.
For example, enabling the talk-through repeater function will only
have an effect if the current profile defines a talk-through repeater signal path.
If the function is not configured, enabling, disabling, or toggling it will have no
effect.
’Do now’ actions ‘Do now’ actions issue a command to the base station to do something
immediately, for example to change channel or send the alarm log. This is a
one-off action which has no continuing effect on the base station’s status. A ‘do
now’ action cannot be re-triggered until the original action is completed. For
example, Task Manager cannot carry out the action
Transmit CWID now
when the base station is still transmitting the CWID from a previous Transmit
CWID now action.
There are some other actions that don’t quite behave like override or ‘do now’
actions. Look under the action for more information.
Custom Inputs and Actions
A task can only have one input and one output. However, you can combine
existing inputs or actions to form your own custom inputs or actions.
A custom input combines up to eight different inputs. It becomes true when
the combination becomes true, according to the rules of the Boolean logic that
you specify for the combination.
Similarly, a custom action can combine up to eight actions. When a task with
a custom action is processed, all its constituent actions are carried out.
You can also use counters, timers, and your own flags when defining tasks.
