3.3.3 Machine triggers and server triggers
Description of functions
In terms of triggers, a distinction can be drawn between machine triggers and
server triggers:
•
Machine triggers respond in the form of queries for signals from the control.
•
Server triggers are queries for values that have already been detected on the
server.
Any action can be executed with any trigger, regardless of whether it is of a ma-
chine or server type. Fault help requests submitted to the ePS Network Services
Internet PC and maintenance jobs that are due to be executed constitute an excep-
tion in this respect: These are monitored on the ePS server rather than being ma-
chine-triggered.
