Trigger and List Control Keys
The Trigger Control key controls output transient triggers. The List key controls the generation of output
lists. A list can contain up to 100 points, each of which can specify an output change (or transient). Refer
to Chapter 4 of the Programming Guide for more information about programming triggers and lists.
Press this key to access the trigger control menu list.
