the period of the internal sequencer clock:
Clk _period = system clock period * blocklength granularity.

Example: If you had set a system clock rate of 100 MHz and a blocklength
granularity of 4, the trigger width would be 40 ns.

To specify events:
1 Open the context menu of a block and choose Edit Events.
Alternatively, you can also choose Events from the Edit menu and select
Edit. Actually, event definitions are independent of the chosen block.
The Module Events window appears.

Click the corresponding checkbox or move with Tab and press the
space bar.
5 Select and edit the details.
These items are logically ANDed. That means, the combination of
