Trigger Delay
Background
The Trigger Delay setting adds a delay to when an
external trigger signal is recognized. Normally the
external trigger is recognized when there is no contact
bounce in the signal for a fixed length of time, this time
is known as the bounce monitoring window. This ensures
that the external trigger signal is stable before it is
recognized. The Trigger Delay time starts right after the
bounce monitoring window ends.
