Process Trigger Properties

This page defines the conditions for triggering a job.

Optional Descriptive Name

Optionally, provide a descriptive name for this trigger. Otherwise, a description will be created automatically based on trigger settings.

Enable this Trigger

If this box is checked, the trigger is enabled and will cause the job to run. If this box is not checked, adTempus will ignore this trigger.

Trigger Conditions

Select the conditions under which the job will be triggered. You must select at least one option.

Processes

Specify the process names that adTempus should monitor. You must specify the name only, not the path, using the form that appears in the Processes list in the Task Manager.

If you specify more than one process, adTempus will trigger the job whenever any of the processes you list satisfies the other criteria.

If you do not specify any processes, adTempus will trigger for every process on the system, which is probably not what you want.

Minimum Time Between Triggers

Specify the minimum time (in seconds) that must elapse after this trigger fires before adTempus will fire it again. Once adTempus triggers the job, it will ignore all process changes until the specified time has passed.

Use a script to select processes

adTempus will run the script you specify. Information about the process will be passed to the script using the Parameters collection. Your script then evaluates the event and sets the global Result variable to True if adTempus should trigger the job, or False if it should not.

adTempus calls the script only for events that have satisfied all of the other criteria for the trigger.

Description/Notes

Enter any extended descriptive information or notes for this trigger. There is no limit on the length of the text.
