Function Yes
Usage
digio.trigger[ N ].clear()
N
Digital I/O trigger line (1 to 14)
Details
The event detector of a trigger enters the detected state when an event is detected. It is cleared when

or
digio.trigger[ N ].clear()
is called.
digio.trigger[ N ].clear()
clears the event detector of the specified trigger line, discards the
history of the trigger line, and clears the
