Events

Event Types



 – Makes the event available for use. When this option is cleared, the event cannot be triggered by the 

master. If the event is inactive, the event cannot be monitored by the master. 

Variable Monitor Tab

The 

tab of the Variable Event Definition dialog designates a variable to be monitored and defines the 

characteristics of the variable that will trigger an action. 

Monitor Section

In this section, designate a variable, a master associated with the variable and a value to be monitored for.



 – The local master where the variable resides. 



 – The name of the variable to update. The displayed variable name includes the type of variable it 

is, i.e., string, number or date. Choose from the drop-down list of user-defined variables.



 – The relative operator used to determine whether the variable’s value satisfies the dependency. 

Equal (=)

Not Equal (<>)

Less Than (<)

Less Than or Equal To (<=)

Greater Than (>)

Greater Than or Equal To (>=)

When text strings are used in comparison, higher letters of the alphabet are greater than lower letters. For example, 
A < Z. If the first letters of the string match, succeeding letters are used for comparison. For example, 

. The 

operation works similar to sorting strings. 



 – The value used for the update. When updating a number type, you can use any real number (including 

negative numbers). When updating a string type, any set of characters (including numbers) are treated as a string. 
When updating a date type, the format will conform to the same format as set in the operating system of the master.



 – Select this option to compare the value of the Variable Name to the value of another variable.



 – Select the remote master that this variable event will monitor.



 – Select the variable associated with the remote master to be monitored.
