Triggers initiate an action at the 788 IC Filtration Sample Processor ,
e.g. sequence start or data transmission. Triggers are marked by the in-

Examples:
Request of the baud rate value: &Config.RSset.Baud $Q
Request of all values of the node 'RSset' : &Config.RSset $Q
Request of the path of the node 'RSset' : &Config.RSset $Q.P
