How to run search based on a condition?

I have a couple of search queries to execute based on certain conditions. A search query in my dashboard is getting executed, before clicking the submit button. I have used fieldset submitButton="true" autoRun="false".

respective search query should be executed, based on the radio button selection and on click of submit button.I want to run the input query, once the input radio button is selected and the submit button is clicked. Attached Screenshots.

Dashboard: Once I open the dashboard, it has a couple of radio buttons (Input and Output) with the submit button. Once I click the input radio button, Input Panel displayed with 6 text fields & submit button (invokes input search query). Once I click the output radio button, Output Panel displayed with 6 text fields & submit button (invokes output search query)

<form>
<label>DemoDashBoard1</label>
<fieldset submitButton="true"  autoRun="false">
  <input type="radio" token="searchBy" searchWhenChanged="false">  <label>SearchBy</label>  <choice value="1">Input</choice>

As long as at least one token in each search is unset, the search will not run. So, whenever the search by token changes, unset both the tokens for the next level down.

My guess of how you can use this: Remove the defaults for each, unset each on init and whenever the radio button is clicked, something like this...

<form>
 <label>DemoDashBoard1</label>
 <init>
     <unset token="EventType"></unset>
     <unset token="businessEventTrigger"></unset>
 </init>
 <fieldset submitButton="true"  autoRun="false">
   <input type="radio" token="searchBy" searchWhenChanged="false">  <label>SearchBy</label>  <choice value="1">Input</choice>
     <choice value="2">Output</choice>
     <change>
       <condition value="1">
         <set token="tkninput">true</set>
         <unset token="tknoutput"></unset>
         <unset token="EventType"></unset>
         <unset token="businessEventTrigger"></unset>
       </condition>
       <condition value="2">
         <set token="tknoutput">true</set>
         <unset token="tkninput"></unset>
         <unset token="EventType"></unset>
         <unset token="businessEventTrigger"></unset>
       </condition>
     </change>
   </input>
   <input type="text" token="EventType" depends="$tkninput$">
     <label>EventType</label>
     <change>
        <condition value="">
          <set token="EventType">*</set>
        </condition>
      </change>
   </input>
          <input type="text" token="businessEventTrigger"  depends="$tknoutput$">
     <label>businessEventTrigger</label>
     <change>
        <condition value="">
          <set token="businessEventTrigger">*</set>
        </condition>
      </change>
   </input>
       </fieldset>

Hello DalJeanis - Thanks for your response. Make sense to unset a token.
I was able to run the search based on independent search which is outside of panel.
1. independent search is based out of radio button (1,2)
2. I was setting/un-setting tokens (inputSearchQryTkn and outputSearchQryTkn) based on the independent search. Respective search query depends on the respective token.

<form>
  <label>Test Search Query</label>
  <search>
    <query>| makeresults
           | eval x=$searchBy|s$
           </query>
    <done>
      <condition match="$result.x$==&quot;1&quot;">
        <set token="tokPanelSelected">1</set>
        <set token="inputSearchQryTkn">ip</set>
        <unset token="outputSearchQryTkn"></unset>
      </condition>
      <condition match="$result.x$==&quot;2&quot;">
        <set token="tokPanelSelected">2</set>
        <unset token="inputSearchQryTkn"></unset>
        <set token="outputSearchQryTkn">op</set>
      </condition>
      <condition>
        <unset token="tokPanelSelected"></unset>
      </condition>
    </done>
  </search>
  <fieldset submitButton="true" autoRun="false">
    <input type="radio" token="searchBy" searchWhenChanged="false" id="radioTxt">
      <label>SearchBy</label>
      <choice value="1">Input Parameters</choice>
      <choice value="2">Output Parameters</choice>
      <change>
        <condition value="1">
          <set token="tkninput">true</set>
          <unset token="tknoutput"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition value="2">
          <set token="tknoutput">true</set>
          <unset token="tkninput"></unset>
        </condition>
      </change>
    </input>
