Custom Events

Custom Events allows you to define event conditions for any device using the drag and drop event builder.

An event consists of the following block elements, found in the event builder menu.

Block Element Description
Event Container block for event conditions, actions, and severity level field.
Event Conditions
  • Threshold: Set one threshold value at which an event occurs.
  • Pickup/Dropout: Set the value at which an event occurs (pickup) and the value at which the event is no longer active (dropout). Use this type to avoid nuisance events.
  • Boolean: Create an event when a Boolean topic value changes, is True, or is False, for example, when breaker open status is True.
  • And: Allows you to combine up to three conditions for an event.
Devices

Select the device and topic that trigger an event. For example, receive a notification when the Temperature on a Temperature Probe Pt100 exceeds 26°C.

The device must be connected to the Com’X in Device Settings.

Value
  • Threshold value for the selected topic.
  • Contact for sending email on event.
Actions
  • Send Email: The Com'X routes an email to the specified recipient when the event conditions are met.
  • Send to EcoStruxure™ Facility Expert: You can enter text in the Action block, for example, the event description. It is recommended to use the same or similar text as the Event Name field in the Com’X.
