WebRelay-10 Users Manual Operation
3.2.2 Monitoring Events Through eventX.xml (WebRelay-10 Plus™ only)
The relays can be configured to turn ON , turn OFF , or pulse at specified times. Instructions to change
the relay state at a given time (or periodically) are called events. WebRelay-10 Plus™ supports 100
events, which can be monitored through the eventX.xml page (where X is the event number 0-99). This
can be demonstrated by entering the following URL into the address bar of a web browser:
http://192.168.1.2/event0.xml
The following event.xml page is returned:
<event0>
<active>yes</active>
<currentTime>11/14/2010 15:14:09</currentTime>
<nextEvent>11/15/2010 15:15:00</nextEvent>
<period>1 d</period>
<count>0</count>
<relay>1</relay>
<action>turn relay(s) on</action>
<pulseDuration>0.5 s</pulseDuration>
</event0>
The tags used by WebRelay-10 are described below:
Tags* Description
<eventX> Event tag where X represents the event number (0-99).
<active> This field indicates whether or not the event is active. The text

<period> For events that occur more than one time, this field indicates the period of the
event (time between event occurrences). The unit of time is indicated after the
value (seconds (s), minutes (m), hours (h), days (d), or weeks (w)). If this field is
set to
