Creating Event Sequences

Event sequences are chains of events leading to some action. A sequence is a

multi-event "if, then" condition: "If x followed by y followed by z occurs, trigger." Event
sequences are created by dragging two or more buttons into the Sequence cell. The
Sequence cell is a faintly marked cell just below the Global State cell. The Sequence cell
contains the text Drag an event here to add a new sequence.

Note: Event sequences can only be created in the Sequence cell. You cannot

create a sequence in the Global State cell.

States

Sequences are made up of cells called States. A state is a stage within a sequence that
specifies what events the analyzer should look for and what actions to apply when the
event occurs.

In the example below, the Sequence is composed of two states. The maximum number
of states a sequence can support is 255.

The foregoing example reads: "Trigger if you see a Primitive followed by an error."
