Command: Event - Universal Robots UR5 User Manual

14.20 Command: Event

An event can be used to monitor an input signal, and perform some action or set a
variable when that input signal goes high. For example, in the event that an output
signal goes high, the event program can wait for 200ms and then set it back to
low again. This can make the main program code a lot simpler in the case on an
external machine triggering on a rising flank rather than a high input level. Events
are checked once every control cycle (8ms).
