Property Trigger

A trigger based on a variable such as speed or altitude. You use a trigger value to determine when it fires.

Attributes

Active On Start

Enabled: the trigger will start evaluating the trigger conditions as soon as the missions starts Disabled: you need to activate this trigger during the mission

Fire Once

Enabled: the trigger will deactivate (stop evaluating) when it fires a connection for the first time Disabled: the trigger will keep firing the connected events until it is deactivated

Property Type

You can select which property / variable to monitor:

  • Altitude (Altitude above sea level, feet)

  • Speed (Indicated airspeed, knots)

  • Ground Speed ( ground speed, knots)

  • Vertical Speed (knots)

  • Heading (True heading, degrees)

  • Pitch (degrees)

  • Bank (degrees)

  • Latitude (decimal degrees)

  • Longitude (decimal degrees)

Trigger Value

Value to base the trigger on. By choosing the Higher, Equals, or Lower action, you set the trigger.

Minimum Duration

Optional: Minimum time (seconds) that the trigger must be active before it can fire

Duration Must Be Continuous

Enabled: the minimum duration must be reached in one continuous period. Disabled: separate periods are added together until the total duration is met.

Actions

Activate

Higher
