    Using Replacement Variables in EasyTrigger

    Please someone tell me what am I doing wrong here.. see attached. No matter what condition I put, it is always evaluating to "true":

    Firstly you're doing too much work in that AND IF condition, you can simply do:
    Condition: A Device's Value Is
    Trigger Type: This Device Had its Value Set and is Not Equal to (being an AND it won't do the "set" bit only the "not equal to")
    Trigger Value: 0

    However being a manually run event the conditions aren't actually used - it runs regardless.

    If you are firing that event VIA another event there is a new option in HS4 to enable processing the conditions of a manual event if that's what you are trying to do?

    Or if you are simply manually testing then you'll need to set a recurring trigger to have the condition evaluated.

    Hope one of these help?

      Hey Thanks Tillsy,

      I started off with a simple condition check, but I was launching the event manually. I was in a fog and didn't realize that the manual launch not only skips the trigger, but it also skips checking the conditions. Tested it with a recurring trigger event and everything is good to go... Thanks again!

      Regards,
      Sam
