    It's probably documented, and i'm not 100% sure, but . . .

    Normal events are generated on a trigger change.
    For example from true to false and vice versa. But also from unknown to true/false.

    I expect the multiple events means that it will generate an event with every item update / trigger evaluation, regardless of trigger status change. This could be useful with certain trapper item triggers.

      This would generate extra events for every evaluation of trigger expression resulted as TRUE. Can be useful for monitoring of log files.

        Thank you! I guess that is the type of info that need to be in the manual! A very short example of what that feature can do!
