You use Actions to program event-driven events. There are two classes of Actions:

• Project-level Actions
• HMI Element Actions

Project-level Actions enable you to use events to drive actions such as Load Screen, or to play Sounds.

To create an action:

1. Select Actions from the Solution Explorer tree.
2. Click Add New Action.
3. Define the Event Name, select an Event Trigger and the resultant Action.

Please Note

• The Event Trigger must be linked to a Set Coil.
• The coil is automatically reset by the OS after the Action is executed.

If the Action requires you to select an entity, such as a screen or sound file, make your selection in the Properties window.
