HDMI-TPS-TX200 series – User's Manual
5.8.2. Create or Modify an Event
Wizard Mode
The wizard mode lists the most common conditions and actions, so the
user does not have to look for LW3 nodes and properties.
Step 1. Click on the Edit button of the desired Event; the Event editor is
6 displayed.
Step 2. The wizard mode is displayed as default. Select the desired
Category first (e.g. Audio or Video).
Step 3. Select the desired Expression from the drop-down menu. If any
other parameter is necessary to set, it is going to be displayed.
Step 4. Press the Apply button to store the settings of the Condition.
7
Advanced Mode
The goal of this mode is the same as of the wizard: set the properties and methods for conditions and
actions. The difference is the number of the available and usable properties and methods of the LW3
protocol. Advanced mode allows almost all of it.
Step 1. Click on the Edit button of the desired Event; the
Event editor is displayed.
8
Step 2. The wizard mode is the default, press the
Advanced button. The LW3 protocol tree is
displayed showing the list of the properties in the
drop-down menu. Navigate to the desired node.
Step 3. Select the desired Property from the menu. The
manual of the property is displayed below to help
to select the necessary property and to set the
value.
Step 4. Set the desired value and operator, then press the
Apply button to store settings.
The Link Tool
The new interface allows creating more actions to the same condition. In that case, a condition can trigger
more actions. To set such an Event, the Link tool has been introduced.
Step 1. Click on the Edit button of the desired Event; the
Event editor is displayed.
Step 2. The wizard mode is displayed as default, press the
Link button.
Step 3. All the saved Events are analyzed and the conditions
are listed (it takes some seconds to finish). The
Show advanced expressions option allows showing
the exact path and set the value of the given property.
Step 4. Select the desired Condition and press the Apply button to store the settings.
