Event trigger wizard : Trigger type

An event's trigger is based on a particular situation that has to occur. (Here, I'm using the term situation rather loosely because a rule might be based around something which doesn't occur, for example the animal fails to enter a particular zone). Anyhow, the point is that you first need to choose what this situation is going to be.

As there are lots of possible situations, they're shown here in groups - for example, Triggers which relate to activity in the island zone.

•

To see the detailed situations, inside a group simply click the group.

•

To choose the individual situation you want to use, simply click it - it'll then be shown highlighted.

•

You won't be able to click the Next > button until you've selected something here.

If you want to define more than one situation, then you should simply create another event and define its trigger to be based on the second situation - you can continue in this way, creating as many events as you like.

If you are using legacy events and actions, rather than procedures, then any zones which have been set up as Investigation zones will not appear in this list. Investigation zones are only supported by procedure events and not by the old legacy events system.
