About Editing Trigger Signals
Procedure and group tables that are populated with processes contain three areas
where you can edit trigger signals:
• The Start box
• The Interrupt box
• The Procedure (or Group) is done when box.
MPT selects default trigger signals for the Start box. The Interrupt and
Procedure (or Group) is done when boxes are blank by default.
Display a trigger list
Even if it is blank, each box contains a hidden trigger signal list. To display the
list, double-click the box.
Select a trigger and
hide the list
When the trigger signal list is displayed, you can select any individual trigger
signal in the list by double-clicking it. This replaces whatever the box had in it
before with the current selection, and then close the list.
Note You can also select a trigger signal (and hide the list) by highlighting the
trigger signal in the list and pressing Enter.
Remove a trigger and
hide the list
To remove the current trigger signal from a box, double-click the box to display
the boxes’ trigger signal list, then double-click the same trigger signal in the list.
This clears the box and hides the list.
Select multiple trigger
signals in a list
To select multiple trigger signals in a list, you can hold down the Shift key to
select a range of trigger signals, or hold down the Ctrl key to select a trigger
signals arbitrarily. When you select multiple signals, the process performs the
action (start the process, interrupt the process, end the procedure or group) when
it receives any of the selected signals.
