Recording Start/State Entrance
In the list of events for Global Rules, this event is listed as "Recording Start", since Global
Rules have only one state and it begins at the start of recording. For sequences, this
event is listed as "State Entrance".
These events are used for special actions which the user only wants to occur once, when
the state is first entered. Some examples have been given earlier where the user might
want a beep as an alert when the system enters a specific state, but the concept is
general and there may be an entire list of actions that the user wants to occur when a
state is entered, but then not remain active while the system remains in that state.
The "Recording Start" and "State Entrance" events have no other parameters associated
with the event.
FIS
The FIS Event allows the user to specify virtually any parameter associated with any
SATA FIS (Frame Information Structure). There are several types of FIS formats, and the
drop-down list under "FIS Type" allows the user to select the FIS format of interest.
With the selection of the FIS Type, the fields associated with that FIS Type will appear as
a list below the type, and the user may enter any value for any of the defined fields.
