Actions
A variable in the VFSM environment may be activated by actions - in such a case it is an output variable. For instance, a digital output has two actions: True and False. A numerical (analog) output variable has an action: Set. A timer which is both: an input and output variable can be triggered by actions like: Start, Stop or Reset.

In fragile bark o’er a tempestuous sea
The common harbor, where must rendered be

But I have that within which passes show,
These but the trappings and the suits of woe.”
