The available event types are below

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_361.png]] Edge: Detect when the signal from an input or a recorded track cross a threshold.

This module is used with the analog inputs (tach pulse or hammer impact). This trigger can be applied to any plug-in analyzer including Waterfall and Recorder.

* '''Hystersis''': defines the hystersis around the threshold. The value can be adjusted between 0 and the full scale of the input signal (depending on the input range). If Slope is set to RISE, the input signal must go below Threshold - Hystersis before a new event can be detected. If Slope is set to FALL, the input signal must go above Threshold <nowiki>+</nowiki> Hystersis before a new event can be detected. This setting is used to reject false edge detection following, for example, an input signal transition.

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_364.png]]RPM: Detect when a tachometer is below or above a specified angular speed. This module is associated with the Tachometer module. This trigger can be applied to any plug-in analyzer including Waterfall and Recorder.

[[Image:Event_definition_04.png|framed|none]]

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_365.png]]Delta-RPM: Same as RPM but generates an event at each step. This module is associated with the Tachometer module. It is used to trigger a plug-in by step. This trigger can be applied to any plug-in analyzer including Waterfall and Recorder.

[[Image:Event_definition_08.png|framed|none]]

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_362.png]] Level: Detect when a signal is below or above a level

This module is used with DC inputs (optional) and/or associated with the TDA or Monitor module. This event can be applied to any plug-in analyzer including Waterfall and Recorder.

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_366.png]]Periodic: Used to trigger a plug-in by periodic step. This event can be applied to any plug-in analyzer including Waterfall and Recorder.

* '''Label''': the name of the event (by default Periodic n, with 1 <nowiki><</nowiki>= n <nowiki><</nowiki>= 2).

* '''Period''': defines the event generation period. An event is generated every Period second (the first one is generated 1 period after the run). The user can enter a value between 2 ms and 1000000 s.

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_367.png]]Combined: Generates an event which is the result of a combination of 2 events. Possible combinations are: OR, AND and AFTER.

* '''Event B''': defines the second operand of the combined event. The user can choose any defined event as operand except for a combined event.

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_368.png]] User: Generates an event when the operator presses the corresponding event button in the software/remote controller interface.

Four user events are available. These events are compatible with the macros. They are particularly useful to run several plug-ins at different time in the same analysis. It can also be put in the control pannel or control by NVDrive.
