Trigger Settings
When the Trigger is turned on, you can open the Trigger Set-
tings dialog box by pressing the left arrow key (you can also select it from the

Stop Condition to work, the Trigger must be turned on (but does need to be

When you have finished changing the settings in the Trigger Settings dialog box,
press

to cancel them.
