Trigger Latch Status
Choose whether the trigger is latched or unlatched.
• A latched trigger is checked once, at the beginning of a segment.
• An unlatched trigger is checked constantly while a a segment is running. If an unlatched
trigger becomes false, the segment timer stops and the loop goes into trigger wait state.
When using two triggers with a segment, the following logic applies:
Table 6.2 — Trigger Latch Logic
TRIGGER SETTINGS TRIGGER LOGIC

One Trigger Latched,

• The unlatched trigger starts/continues a segment.
• The latched trigger has no effect.
