What is an event?
An event is a trigger for invoking an "action," which is a server function of FA-Server.
By registering an action to an event, the registered action will be called and executed at the specified time or when the specified conditions are met.
To add an event, click the "Event" icon in the tree on the left side of the screen.
There are three types of events: "Periodic event", "Scheduled event", and "Tag event".
