Setting a general task

There should be You must have a clear vision of what is to be done must happen in the system as a result of specific eventswhen certain event occur. Specify the ID of devices that participate in creating generating events and actions.

Outlining the task into subtasks

If several events are to must be processed in one task, then it must be clear what to do with each event. If possible, exclude the possibility of loop script execution, i.e. , it means, exclude any recursive actions if they are not related to task execution.

Writing subtasks and debugging them

The most difficult part of writing scripts is creating the list of actions with possible use of logic and loop cycle operations. Debugging of this part of programming takes much time. Events generation that needs processing is not usually easy-to-use, especially on a real object, —for example fire sensor triggering - or motion by camera that is far programming place (from the server to with the system core). In this case, it is recommended to generate an event manually at the stage of debugging, the best way is to run an empty macro. After the body of the script is debugged, there is a real event instead of running the empty macro. Moreover, one may check and vice versa - you can make sure whether the event is written correctly events without starting the action list – run by running an empty macro and watch watching its performance in the debug Debug window.

Finding and fixing bugs

At program startup, embedded syntax analyzer checks if names of functions are spelled correctly, but does not check the program syntax (position of key characters - : commas, semicolons and nested parentheses, etc).  In In order to track the bugs in the program, if any, it is necessary to activate the you must activate the Debug 4 debug mode (see Selecting Enabling and enabling configuring the debug mode of Intellect softwareAxxon PSIM). In there are syntax errors, the Critical errors window will be displayed at the stage of the program body execution. This window lists the names of functions with incorrect syntax and other debugging information.
