Variables
This block does not define any specific variables.
Example
Event generated 1s after the rise of event on row 1:
Event.Delay: StartEvent=1; Delay=1s
Event.Timer
The
block defines the event generated with a defined delay after another
Timer
specified event with a defined count of repetitions. Define this event to delay the
response to the other event by a defined time interval, or execute the response several
times.
Parameters
StartEvent – define the timer starting event (i.e. the row number in the
Automation tag on which the event is defined). The parameter is optional. If no
value is completed, the timer will be started automatically.
StopEvent – define the timer stopping event (i.e. the row number in the
Automation tag on which the event is defined). When StopEvent is executed, the
timer will stop and will be restarted by StartEvent only. This parameter is
optional.
Period – define the timer period.
Example of valid values:
10 – 10 seconds (units are unnecessary)
10s – 10 seconds
100ms – 100 milliseconds.
Count – define the count of repetitions. The parameter is optional and the
default value is 0, which means that the count of timer generated events is
unlimited. Value 1 makes the timer behave as a Delay.
Variables
This block does not define any specific variables.
Example
Event generated three times in 1s intervals after the rise of event on row 1:
Event.Timer: StartEvent=1; Period=1s; Count=3
