Triggering the recording
Again, the displayed data is independent from the recorded data. Thus we need to start
the recording on the trigger event generated by the Trigger Detector in the same manner
as we triggered the display.
This option is only available if there is a trigger stream available, that is, a Trigger Detector
in the rack.
1. In the tree view pane of the virtual rack, select the Recorder, and click the Window tab.
2. Select the option Start on Trigger. In the Trigger selection box, Trigger 1 appears
automatically. Two text boxes appear, too. These two parameters define the cutout: The Start
Time is generally a negative value, that is, the pretrigger time. The Window Extent is the total
time of the cutout sweep. Please read chapter "Triggering MC_Rack on a stimulus" for more
information about "Window Extent" settings.
