7.8.1. How to arrange an Event?
Thefollowingarenecessarytohaveasuccessfulevent:
▪ DefiningtheCondition
▪ DefiningtheAction
▪ SettingtheDelay (optional)
▪ Name the Event and set to Enabled. (SettingtheEventtoEnabled as the last step is recommended.)
Command and Response
SET·/EVENTS/E<loc>.Condition=<expression>
ç
pw·/EVENTS/E<loc>.Condition=<expression>
æ
Parameters
The structure of the <expression>is:<node_path>.<property>=<value>.
Example 1 – property changes to a set value
ç SET/EVENTS/E1.Condition=/MEDIA/VIDEO/I1.SignalPresent=1
æ pw/EVENTS/E1.Condition=/MEDIA/VIDEO/I1.SignalPresent=1
TheConditionisfulfillediftheSignalPresentpropertychangesto'1'.
Example 2 – property changes anything but the set value
Insomecases,theoppositeisnecessary:whenthepropertydoesnot equal with the value. If you need so,
the ConditionInverted property must be set to true:
ç SET/EVENTS/E2.Condition=/MEDIA/VIDEO/O1.ConnectedSource=I1
æ pw/EVENTS/E2.Condition=/MEDIA/VIDEO/O1.ConnectedSource=I1
ç SET/EVENTS/E2.ConditionInverted=true
æ pw/EVENTS/E2.ConditionInverted=true
TheConditionisfulfillediftheConnectedSourcepropertydoesnotequalwith'I1'(inotherwords:ifotherinput
portisconnectedtoO1thanI1).
Example 3 – property changes to anything

DIFFERENCE: Thisfeatureisavailablefromfirmwarev1.3.0b6.
When not the property value matters, but the change of the property value, the change can be set as a
condition. In this case, put a ?charactertotheendofthedesiredproperty:
ç SET/EVENTS/E3.Condition=/MEDIA/VIDEO/O1.ConnectedSource?
æ pw/EVENTS/E3.Condition=/MEDIA/VIDEO/O1.ConnectedSource?
If the ConnectedSourcepropertychanges(duetoacrosspoint-switch),thesetConditionisfulfilled.
