3.6.2 Controlling the Generation of Events

Some applications may require that only some points should generate events.
The application will receive current values from points which have not been
configured to generate events only by issuing a poll request, or what the protocol
specification calls an interrogation. Other applications may require that all
configured points generate events.

The 104S v2 gateway offers much flexibility for event control. You may control
whether or not events will be generated at three (3) different levels:

1 At the General Application Level (all configured points of all types)
2 At the Data Type Level (all configured point in each data type)
3 At the Individual Point Level (any specific point of any data type)

General (All Points)

The user may control how frequently the gateway will scan the database for
events using the following configuration parameter:

If this parameter is set to 0, the gateway will not generate events for any points.
A non-zero value will configure how frequently the module gatewaycan for events
in the database.
