Maxwell Objects
From ColorWiki
CHROMiX Maxwell stores a wide range of data types. Each data type in Maxwell is stored as an Object. Object types have specific type code (MxO) and each individual Maxwell object has a unique ID which is composed of the MxO, a colon ':' and a unique record ID for that object type. In this manner, any Maxwell data object is specified by a unique code that can be used in bookmarks, API references, generalized storage areas (such as a Notifier storing which object it's attached to.)

Notifier (N)
- Notifiers are event handlers you can attach to almost any Maxwell object type. When a particular event relating to that object occurs, the notifier will wake up and handle whatever task you have specified.
- To create Notifiers, navigate to the desired object and click on the triagular Notifier icon on the bottom right side of the object's detail pane. Click the list's '+' button and a new notifier is created for you to configure.
- Note: An important distinction between Notifiers and almost all other Maxwell objects is their ownership. A Notifier's owner is set to the user who created it rather than the owner of the related object. This allows you to attach Notifiers to objects you don't own. This way you can monitor color standards or other public or private objects for which you have View access.

A Track is a collection of measurements, profiles, or other data which enables Maxwell to monitor devices or other trending data over time.
