Fault Indication Advanced
Control Outputs are configured by defining one or more actions to be triggered on an output event.
The Fault Indication Advanced function is used to trigger the control output with custom filter scripts.
This function can be useful if you have a specific need that cannot be accomplished with Fault Indication.
This is solved through the use of a custom script.
