Commands on Event

The Event Objects resource is the tool which allows commands to be executed on the event of a Movicon variable change.

The Commands on Event are very handy to use when needing to monitor the value changes of one or multiple variables in the project upon which commands are triggered.

The time needed to design projects with commands that the plant must execute according to variables values is thus reduced considerably.

 

The Event Objects are designed to execute commands or a list of commands according to the value obtained by specific variables.

 

This resource is available in the Movicon 'Project Explorer' window.

 

 

This resource can contain an unlimited number of Event Objects each one of which can be assigned a different variable and edited by means of their 'Properties Window'.

 

The Event Object resource offers many advantages when operating with applications with variable values that need to be controlled to trigger one or more commands when they change. One advantage is that the programmer is saved the job of writing code to control the variables in question. To add, copy or delete an Event Object, use the standard techniques described in the paragraph on  "The Resource".
