Creating a Logic Event

Logic events require multiple update events to function.

In the following example, a simple OR logic event is set up to trigger when one or all of the following update events is satisfied:

  • the simulation time is 0.5 seconds
  • at every ten iterations
  • the user-defined report value (pressure) is greater than or equal to 10 Pascal.

To set up the logic event:

  1. Right-click the Automation > Update Events node and select Logic Event.

A logic event is added to the Update Events node.

  1. Select the logic event node and set Logic Operator to Or.
The icon next to the logic event changes to reflect the new logic.

  1. Right-click Logic Event > Update Events and select New Event > Monitor Delta.

A monitor delta event is added to the logic event node.

  1. Select the Monitor Delta node and set:
    • Monitor to Physical Time
    • Delta Threshold to 0.5 s
  2. Using the same technique, create a Monitor Frequency event and set:
    • Monitor to Iteration
    • Sample Frequency to 10
  3. Using the same technique, create a Monitor Range and set:
    • Monitor to [Pressure Report]
    • Range Value to 10 Pa

The logic event is ready to be applied.

  1. In the feature of your choice, navigate to the Update node, and set Trigger to Update Event. In this example, the Update node of a scalar scene is selected.


  2. Select Update > Event Frequency and set Update Event to the update event you created, in this case Logic Event.
