Details
This function waits up to the timeout value for an input trigger. If one or more trigger events were detected since
the last time tsplink.trigger[N].wait() or tsplink.trigger[N].clear() was called, this function
returns immediately.
After waiting for a trigger with this function, the event detector is automatically reset and rearmed. This is true
regardless of the number of events detected.

triggered = tsplink.trigger[3].wait(10)
