 The signature of this callback should look like this:
 
-`function (event, name, message, info)`
+---
+`function (event, name, data)`
+
+#### **Parameters**
+- **event** - which event is being fired.
+- **name** - the name of the component that has fired this event
+- **data** - an object that contains information relevant to the event
+
+### **Event Types**
+There are five different events, they are.
+- **input** - fired when any component receives a signal
+- **output** - fired when any component sends a signal
+- **translate** - fired when a component outputs a signal, contains information
+about both the input and the output
+- **step** - fired when a rotor steps
+- **double-step** - fired when a rotor performs the double step.
+
+### Common
+
+Every event contains these parameters,
+
+- **name** - contains the name of the component sending the event
+- **type** - the type of component sending the event. This is one of *Entry Wheel*,
+    *Plugboard*, *Reflector*, *Rotor* and *Enigma*
+- **description** - a human readable string that details the event
+- **direction** - this is not sent for all events, but is for *input*, *output*,
+and *translate*, it is one of:
+
+    - **right** - this is the direction the translation starts until it hits
+    the reflector
+    - **left** - this is the direction translation happens after going through
+    the reflector.
+    - **turn-around** - sent by the reflector
+    - **end-to-end** - sent by the Enigma
+
+
+### input
+This event is fired when any component receives a signal. In addition to the
+common fields, the data object contains these fields:
+
+- **input** - this is the input value, it can be either a string or a number
 
-### **Parameters**
-- **event** a string that identifies the specific action being taken.
-- **name** the name of the class instance that has fired this event
-- **message** a string that describes the event taking place
-- **info** an object that contains information relevant to the event
+### output
+
+This event is fired sent when any component sends a signal. In addition to the
+common fields, the data object contains these fields:
+
+- **output** - this is the output value, it can be either a string or a number
+
+### translate
+
+This event is fired when a component outputs a signal, contains information
+about both the input and the output. In addition to the common fields, the data
+object contains these fields:
+
+- **input** - this is the input value, it can be either a string or a number
+- **output** - this is the output value, it can be either a string or a number
+
+### step
+
+This event is fired when a rotor steps. In addition to the common fields, the
+data object contains these fields:
+
+- **start** - the staring position of the rotor
+- **stop** - the ending position of the rotor
+- **turnover** - true if the the stepping reached the turnover point
 
 The specific events and data are defined in the class documentation that
 follows.
 
+### double-step
+
+This event is fired when a rotor performs the double step. In addition to the
+common fields, the data object contains these fields:
+
+- **offset** - the new position of the rotor
