Event List - Events
To trigger an Action Macro from an external input an Event has to be created and a Trigger
has to be defined. This is done in the Event List.
For each type of trigger (input), an Event list needs to be created. This is to allow for future
expansion of both internal ports and network ports.
1. Open the Event List
Insert an item (INSERT) and define a Trigger (you can add a description).
2. Open the editor by pressing MODIFY in the first column.
Use INSERT to insert a new line. Define the Trigger and Action string using the
formats described in
Actions & Events - Actions . You can add a description as well
(recommended)
