Event Objects

Introduction

An Event object contains information about an asynchronous event. Typically, events are generated by the controller, but in some special cases it is possible to generate events from the host computer.

The Event object is retrieved through the EventMgr, via the Notify object. The Event object contains data about the type of event, its source, and other information. The user Event fields can be configured to collect data at the time when the event occurs in the controller.
