ok, this is clear to me...

we never used "/Equipment/Trigger/Common/Event limit" but we always used
"/Logger/Channels/0/Settings/Event limit"...

btw I did some tests and I understand that this issue is related to 'deferred transition'
on frontend. Indeed I disabled deferred transition on frontend side and now script
execution is carried out always on MIDAS server;
