The pull-down list of available signals is populated according to the protection functions
that have been enabled. Selected signals will be automatically assigned as channels and
as triggers according to their importance. These signals may be deactivated by the user.
For example, if ground time overcurrent 1 has been enabled, then the following
assignments are made.

Trigger
Range: Off, Trigger Only, Trigger/Re-Trigger, Re-Trigger Only
Default: Off
This setting selects the trigger function of the digital channel. When set to “Trigger Only”
or “Trigger/Re-Trigger”, the disturbance recorder will initiate data capture for an OFF-ON
transition of the channel signal. The resulting record will contain both pre-fault and fault
data and the channel must return to the off state before it can generate a subsequent
trigger.
