DEFINING ACTIONS
CRIMSON USER MANUAL - MODULAR CONTROLLER
DEFINING ACTIONS
Many primitives can be made touch-sensitive such that certain actions will occur when they
are pressed, held-down or released. To define the actions to be performed by a primitive,
display the properties of that primitive and select the Action tab…
The drop-down list is used to select the action mode, each of which is described below.
ENABLING ACTIONS
If you want to make a particular action dependent on some condition being true, enter an
expression for that condition in the Enable field for the action in question. This expression
may reference a flag tag directly, or may use any of the comparison or logical operators
defined in the Writing Expressions section. If you need more complex logic, such that one of
several actions is performed based on more complex decision-making, configure the primitive
in user-defined mode and use it to invoke a program that implements the required logic. In
addition, the Remote property can be used to enable or disable this action via the web server’s
virtual panel facility: In order for remote access to be allowed, the Enable expression must
evaluate to a non-zero value, and the Remote property must be set to Enabled.
ACTION DESCRIPTIONS
The sections below describe each available type of action. When each type is selected, the
Action Details portion of the action dialog box will change to show the available options.
