DIO (Digital Input/Output)
A DIO Event is triggered when the INPUT or OUTPUT value at a specified Digital I/O port reaches the
desired state, either low or high. If an expression is defined for a DIO Event, then the expression is
evaluated whenever the state of DIO port changes.
Startup
Startup Events are triggered while the WACI is booting up (typically from reset or power on). These
Events are useful to place the WACI or any devices connected to the WACI into a pre-defined initial
state.
Telnet
The Telnet Event connects via TCP to a Telnet server and monitors any incoming data. The connection to
the Telnet server will be continuously maintained, and if the connection is dropped, the Event will
attempt to reconnect once per minute. The WACI also supports incoming Telnet connections, and will
accept those connections if an Event exists having an “Origin” that matches the incoming connection.
Fill the “Origin” field with the IP address or machine name of the Telnet server. Use the “Trigger Value”
to define the value to match to cause the Event to be executed. The “Trigger value” used by a Telnet
Event is similar in format to a Serial Event’s.
