Use the name of the trigger event ID to set the stimulus value rather than the numeric value. Using
the name makes the code compatible for future upgrades (for example, if the numeric values must
change when enhancements are added to the instrument).
Example 1
digio.trigger[3].stimulus =
scan.trigger.EVENT_CHANNEL_READY
Example 2
digio.trigger[3].stimulus = 0
