Event Generation

Most hardware devices generate various events. These events usually reflect changes in device status or operating conditions. The Agent application maybe used to poll events from external hardware as well as generate them internally. These events are represented as context events in context provided by Agent.

Asynchronous Updates Of Server Cache

Sometimes is may be necessary to "push" new value of some changed Agent variable to the AggreGate Server and update settings cache without waiting for a regular synchronization cycle. If such case, Agent should generate and Updated event for the changed variable. Updated event contains name and new value of the variable. AggreGate Server will put new value to the server cache upon receiving Updated event if synchronization options for this variable does not block device-to-server synchronization.
