Action Keywords

An action is defined as a keyword that identifies the action type, always followed by one or more parameters and sometimes the equal (assignment) operator.

Every keyword uses a specific syntax that interprets parameters according to its own rules.

I/O Servers

IO

Writes to I/O servers data points.

Action	Description
IO name = value	sets the data point to a value. Values are specific to the type of I/O server
IO name = FLIP	inverts the output of the I/O data point. If the status of the output is 0 the new status will be 1, if different from 0 the new status will be 0
IO name1 = IO name2	sets the I/O interface output name1 to the current value of the I/O interface name2

Parameters:

• name - the server id, followed by a single dot and the data point suffix. The EVENTS interpreter converts data points names to lower case
• value - you can use multiple unquoted words, quoted strings and variables, that will be appended to the value string.

Examples:

IO contacts.c1 contacts.c3= 1
IO sensors.c1 = FLIP
IO contacts.o1 contacts.o2 = IO sensors.flood
