All CIMPLICITY action types (found in the Event Editor) are available except for:
Alarm Lookup and
Recipe Upload/Download.
The difference between configuring a class action and a standard action is that you:
Select a data item instead of a point ID when you configure an action that requires a point ID.
The CIMPLICITY $OBJECT variable is automatically entered when you select the data item.
Note: The user can associate a non-object event with an object action. This allows an object to instantiate actions that can be called from other events.
