trigger event, including the pre-trigger properties and the amount of memory to be
reserved for the recording.
Trigger Type The event that triggers the recording can be one of four types,
selected from the drop-down list.

The trigger is set as soon as Arm Trigger is selected on the
Operations section; in effect, recording will start immediately.

Operations section. Recording will start when a rising / falling
edge is detected at the TTL input on the TS Processor, Alarms
connector (see the MTM400 Technical Reference for
specifications).

Operations section. Recording will start when an error occurs
on an event that has been flagged in the Tests or Custom views.
