Id #

The number under which the trigger is saved internally. This field is only for viewing and is empty when you create a new trigger.

Name #

The name of the trigger.

Comment #

The comment field is for free use by the integrator/system administrator. It is used exclusively to document the configuration. Information can be entered here, e.g. the purpose of the element, comments on the connected hardware, room/floor and other special features. The content of this field is irrelevant for X2.

Dead time #

A period of time that suppresses the re-triggering of this trigger after it has been triggered. You can use the dead time to suppress multiple triggering if the triggering event occurs again within this time.

An example would be if you trigger an action, e.g. when a doorbell is pressed, and do not want this action to take place several times if the visitor rings the doorbell several times. In this example, you use the dead time to determine the minimum time that must elapse after the first ring before the doorbell is answered again.

Limit value direct #

In this field, you can directly specify the value to be compared with. Leave the field empty if you do not want to compare with a constant value.

Limit value channel #

Here you can select a channel that provides the comparison value. Leave the field empty if you do not want to compare with a channel.

Comparison operator #

Here you select how to compare.

Triggering channels #

Here you select the channels to whose value this trigger should react.

Remarks #

This trigger can carry out one or more comparisons; if you specify both a direct value and a limit channel, both comparisons are carried out and one correct comparison is sufficient to trigger the trigger.
