Controlling the Generation of Events
Some applications may require that only some points should generate events.
The application would only poll the current value for these points, although there
would be no special interest on when these points change the values. Other
applications may require that all configured points should generate events.
The 4205/5205-TS-104S-PDPS module offers a lot of flexibility for event control.
The user may control if events will be generated at 3 different levels:
1
General (All Points)
2
Data Type Level
3
Point Level
General (All Points)
The user may control how frequently the module will scan the database for
events using the following configuration parameter:
Event Scan delay : 1 #MSec between event scanning (0-65535)
#0=Disable
If this parameter is set to 0, the module will not generate events for any points. A
non-zero value will configure how frequently the module will scan for events in
the database.
Data Type Level
The user may configure if a data type should generate events or not. Each data
type has a configuration parameter to control the generation of events:
M_SP_NA Scan Events : 1 #0=No scanning, 1=scan for events
M_DP_NA Scan Events : 0 #0=No scanning, 1=scan for events
M_ST_NA Scan Events : 0 #0=No scanning, 1=scan for events
M_ME_NA Scan Events : 0 #0=No scanning, 1=scan for events
M_ME_NB Scan Events : 0 #0=No scanning, 1=scan for events
M_ME_NC Scan Events : 0 #0=No scanning, 1=scan for events
In the example above, only the M_SP_NA points would generate events.
Point Level
You can configure if each point should generate events or not using the Group
field for each point configuration. The user should set the value as 40000000 in
order to disable the generation of events for that specific point.
