Action Waiting

Users can force an action to wait before processing actions below it.

Scene Waiting

  • if “Wait for Control Ack” is checked. The scene will delay processing the actions below. Until the feedback (acknowledgment) of the control signal is received.
  • If “Max Retry” is not zero, and the control failed to execute for any reason, the system will keep retrying for times specified.
  • If “Exit on Failure” is checked, the scene will finish without executing the following actions.
  • If “Wait for Seconds” is not zero, the scene will wait for extra seconds specified before processing the following actions.
