Creating an event - LSM 3.5 SP3 Business + Prof.

Use an event to trigger a response. Ideally, you should create the response beforehand (see Creating a response). This allows you to select the response easily while creating the event.

In our example, the event is a transponder accessing a locking device.

  1. Use Network to select the Event manager input.
  3. The Network event manager window will open.
  5. Click the New button in the left-hand Events section.
  6. The New Event window will open.
  8. Enter a name and optionally a description for the event.

  9. NOTE

    notice

    Meaning of Message and Alarm lev.

    The Message and Alarm lev. fields are relevant if you are using a Network reactionresponse.

    If you receive these messages with the EventAgent, the EventAgent evaluates these two pieces of information.

  10. Select the type of event from the Type drop-down menu (example: Access).
  12. Click the Configure event button.
  13. The Access event window will open.
  15. Activate the React to all transponders check box.
    The event will occur with every transponder operation. Alternatively, you can restrict the event to a single transponder.
  16. If you are using the event for directly networked locking devices (WaveNet), enable the Close-up range modeReal-time event checkbox in the TargetTime setting section.
    Otherwise, configure to what point in the past the entries should be taken into account.
  17. Click on the OK button.
  18. Access event window closes.
  19. Click the YesSelect button in the Locks/network nodes section.
  20. The Administration window will open.
  22. Add the locking devices on which a transponder should trigger the event.

  25. Click the Add button and add the previously configured response.
  26. The event will trigger the responses selected here.
  27. Click the Configure times button.
  28. The Configure times window will open.
  29. Configure the times at which the event is triggered in this window.
    For example, you can take into account night rest periods.
  30. Close the dialogue by clicking the OK button twice.
  31. The newly created event is now listed.
  33. Click on the Exit button.
  34. Your LSM offers you the option of notifying the communication node of the changed settings immediately.
    You can also forward the settings manually at a later stage. See Setting up the gateway and VN host server for an example of a description.
  36. Click on the Yes button.
  37. Your LSM interrupts ongoing task and event manager activities if needed and transfers the changed settings.
  38. Network event manager window closes.

The response will now be triggered when the event occurs and the corresponding service is running.
