Tech/Engineering - IT (Information Technology) / information technology
English term or phrase: trigger
I'm not entirely sure what this word means!
It only seems to pop up in error messages on the computer in sentences such as:
'Failed saving trigger and flags'
'Failed selecting the trigger string'
'Failed setting scheduler trigger values'
Any suggestions??
