What is Event Handler?
Event HandlerFundamentally, the event handler differs from a timer scheduler in that it enables multiple actions to be triggered by a single event or recurrence that can be further tailored with rules. Configuration can be performed using the AUDAC Touch. GPIO or timed events can all trigger the event handler.
Note: Up to 100 events can be created using the event handler.
Note: In order for the event handler to work, the time region should be set correctly on the device settings.

Parameter Name | Parameter Range | Parameter Definition |
Time Trigger | Add Time Trigger/Remove Time Trigger | Each event can have up to 10 time triggers. |
Years | Selection | Each time trigger can have up to 8 year selection options between 2023 and 2030. A selected year cannot be selected again. If the year is selected as a repeat parameter, more than one year rule might be confusing. |
