* Use the name of the trigger event ID to set the stimulus value rather than the numeric value. Using the name
makes the code compatible for future upgrades (for example, if the numeric values must change when
enhancements are added to the instrument).
Example
smua.trigger.arm.stimulus = trigger.timer[1].EVENT_ID
An event on trigger timer 1 causes the arm event detector to enter the detected state.
