Data Listener Group Identifier

identifier.group

Data Listener Specific Identifier

identifier.specific

Target

The Specific Identifier received by the Data Listener



The identifier.any and identifier.group variables can be used to ensure valid data is received as well as triggering events if a certain type of data is received.

For example, a status group of Quality could be created and then all quality related downtimes can be made a member of the Quality group.  Now, if any downtime identifier within the quality groups is received by the data listener then an action can take place such as turning on a pole light using the SRC.

Examples of using the data listener variables in expressions are shown on the Unsolicited Data Collection page
