Global State vs. Sequences
The Main Display area in the center of the Recording Rules page has two cells that affect
events differently.
Global State: Events dragged into the Global State cell are searched for throughout the
recording. For example, if you place an Error in the Global State cell and assign a Trigger
to it, the Analyzer searches for errors from the start of the recording until the end.
Sequence State: The cell marked Drag an event here to create a new sequence is a
Sequence Cell. Sequence cells are used to event sequences, which are chains of events
culminating in a trigger or other action. One sequence (i.e., a separate chains of events)
can be created with up to 32 states. A state is an event condition plus some action within
a sequence.
