Firing Frequency

Fields where you set a limit on how often an event component produces its event. Optional.

The set of firing frequency fields can be interpreted as follows.

Fire not more than N times in X time units, where a time unit is a combination of type and interval.

For the value of X, you use the Expression Builder. You can select a value based on a constant, a data source field, or a Container, Select, or Math component.

If you set a variable firing frequency where the frequency might diminish and then increase, firing may not behave as you expect. This can happen when the data used to determine the variable firing frequency is aged out.
