Usage examples

Problem 1. When Macro 1 starts, play the following audio files one by one: cam_alarm_1.wav, cam_alarm_2.wav, cam_alarm_3.wav from the …\Axxon PSIM\Wav\ folder. Set a 5 seconds (5000 milliseconds) delay before starting each subsequent file.

if (Event.SourceType == "MACRO" && Event.SourceId == "1" && Event.Action == "RUN")
{
var i;
 for(i=1; i<=3; i=i+1)
 {
  DoReactStr("PLAYER", "1", "PLAY_WAV", " file<\cam_alarm_" + i + ".wav>");
  Sleep(5000);
 } 
}

Problem 2. When macro №2 starts, timer №1, that triggers every 10 seconds in a minute after macro №2 starting, starts.

if (Event.SourceType == "MACRO" && Event.SourceId == "2" && Event.Action == "RUN")
{
for(i=0; i<=5; i=i+1)
{
DoReactStr("TIMER","1", "DISABLE", "");
Sleep(10000);
DoReactStr("TIMER","1", "ENABLE", "");
NotifyEventStr("TIMER","1", "TRIGGER", "");
}
DoReactStr("TIMER","1", "DISABLE", "");
