Operation

This IO Module works by specifying a time frame (in the Instance Properties) within which the Random Interval Trigger can randomly fire. Once enabled from an Enable Random Interval action, the Random Interval trigger will begin to fire.

Instance Properties

The Minimum Interval and Interval Range specify the minimum and maximum time within which the Random Interval Trigger will fire. A numeric Seed value can be specified for the random generator to use; this can be any value between 1 and 999999 but can be left as default 1.

Check the Repeating checkbox to allow the Random Interval Trigger to continue firing indefinitely once it has been enabled by the Enable Random Interval action, otherwise it will fire once when the Enable Random Interval action is run.

Triggers

Random Interval

Fires after the random interval time expires.

If the Repeating checkbox is ticked in the Instance Properties this Trigger will continue firing at random. If not, then this Trigger will only fire once.

Actions

Enable Random Interval

Enables the Random Interval trigger to begin firing.

Disable Random Interval

Disables (cancels) the Random Interval Trigger from firing.

If Repeating is checked in the instance properties, the trigger will continue being fired until this action is run.
