libraries button.
2. In the Trigger function libraries dialog, select the Create button.
3. In the Create User Library dialog, enter the library name and description,
and select OK.

button.

description, and select the levels from the current trigger sequence that be
the trigger function; then, select OK.
Once you have created a trigger function library with trigger functions,
you can:
• Load or unload the trigger function library.
