Events and Event Actions

What are Events?

Events are conditional triggers built in the Event Manager Database.

Each event continuously monitors a panel condition. When a condition is met, the Event executes associated actions.

Define a Trigger: configure the Event Trigger Condition(s). See Event Trigger Condition Types below.
Attach Actions: associate up to 16 actions with a single event. See more about Actions below.
Monitor & Manage: All events are visible in the Event Manager Database, where you can add, edit, delete, copy/paste, reorder, and import or export the entire database. See Manage Events for more information.

Conditional triggers for events are based on:

Tag state or tag value
- Discrete type tags: trigger an action when a tag changes state
- Numeric type tags: trigger an action based on a tag value condition
A single event at a specific Day & Time
- Daily
- Specific days of the week
- Multiple times per day at a set interval during a time frame
When a set Screen opens or closes.

Actions are what Events do. Events act as triggers for actions.

Each event continuously monitors a panel condition. When a condition is met, the Event executes up to 16 Actions.

Actions execute in the order they appear in the Sequence List. Reorder them with the up/down arrows.

There are 11 Actions. See each one below for more information:
