Lexmark 11 manual Conditions, EventDataIs key, value SourceDataIs key, value TimeIsAfter

•Distribute

Conditions:

•And (Condition_1...Condition_n)

•Or (Condition_1...Condition_n)

•EventDataIs (key, value)

•SourceDataIs (key, value)

•TimeIsAfter

As an example, let's look at the script representation of the built-in Trigger on Active filter:

IfThen (EventDataIs("state", "ACTIVE"))

Distribute

The effect of the EventDataIs condition is to ask the event for the value of the event.state keyword. This is the same keyword you can insert into command lines and e-mail messages. The first statement, an IfThen, executes the next statement if the condition EventDataIs ("state", "ACTIVE") is true. An EventDataIs condition is true if the value of the keyword (state) matches the given value (ACTIVE). The next statement, Distribute, causes the command to execute.

Now, let's look at the script to write when the Trigger on Active filter is set with a delay of 30 seconds:

{

WaitUntil (TimeIsAfter(30))

IfThen(EventDataIs("state", "ACTIVE"))

Distribute

}

The braces ({}) are used to group statements into a list. They were not needed in the previous example because the IfThen and following statements were treated like a single statement.

The WaitUntil statement causes the script to pause execution until the condition is true. The TimeIsAfter condition checks for true only after the specified number of seconds has passed. Once the 30 seconds has passed, if the event is still Active, the Distribute statement executes the command.

The script representation of the built-in Trigger on Either Active or Clear filter is a single Distribute statement. Let's say, for example, that you select Paper Tray Missing as the event, but you only want to execute the command when the event occurs for Tray 3. Also, you want to wait 20 minutes before executing the command, and execute the command again at the same 20-minute interval if the condition remains Active. Let's look at the script to write for this filter:

While (And(EventDataIs("state", "ACTIVE"), EventDataIs("location", "Tray 3")))

{

WaitUntil(TimeIsAfter(1200))
