Creating and Editing Events
Selecting the "Add event" button from the Event Manager page will create a new event, while selecting
the "Edit" button above the Event list will allow you to edit whichever event is highlighted.
You will be prompted for the name of the event, the type of event, and any options associated with the
event, as described in the next two sections.
Types of Events
As mentioned earlier, events are triggered when a condition is met in the hardware or for a variable. The
options for triggering an event depend on its type. The system recognizes the following types of events:
Clock
A Clock Event is triggered at a specified time of day on a calendar. Options include the start date and
time, as well as the one-time, daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly recurrence.
Timer
The timer operates by counting down from a value specified by hours:minutes:seconds. When the timer
"runs out", the Timer Event is triggered, and the timer is restarted at the specified value.
