Respond to Trigger...
This setting determines when an event can be triggered. The options are:
•Always - the event can be activated by the trigger (see below) at any time
•Only during time frame - a trigger will only start the event during the times specified. Triggers at other times will be ignored. Select the days and set the period’s start time and Duration. The Duration may be set up to a maximum of 168 hours. If a Duration of more than 24 hours is required, then only one weekday may be checked. To use two or more trigger time frames of more than 24 hours - two or more event types (one for each time frame) must be configured.
•Never - the event type is disabled and no actions will be performed.
