3.3.3 Trigger Settings

The Trigger settings screen can be accessed through settings button of the home
screen toolbar. Trigger events can be used to start and stop a data logging
session. It is even possible to trigger multiple sessions using repeat trigger
events. Start and stop trigger events can be used independently or together,
allowing many different ways to control data logging sessions. There are five
types of trigger events available. When no start trigger event is configured,
data logging will commence immediately upon pressing the Log Data button.
Otherwise the data logger will enter into the Armed mode and it will await a
start trigger event before commencing data logging. When no stop trigger event
is configured, data logging will continue until the user presses the Stop Log
button or the selected memory device is full.
