A TriggerSwitch element generates 'Director' events suitable for
controlling <A HREF="Switcher">Switcher</A> elements (and eventually
other modules as well).  <i>Any</i> kind of data arriving at its
input will trigger transmission of a signal.  (Data is 'packetized'
-- size of packet depending on the data -- so one event corresponds
to one arriving packet.)  The director code sent is
set by the control panel; only this selected code will be emitted by
the element -- separate elements must be used for alternative signals.
<h4>
Inputs
</h4>
<UL Type="none">
<LI> <B>Trigger</B> -- Data arriving here will trigger a signal
</UL>
<h4>
Outputs
</h4>
<UL Type="none">
<LI> <B>Trigger</B> -- Pass-through of arriving data packets
<LI> <B>Switch Out</B> -- Signal events are emitted on this connection
</UL>
<P>
<h4>
Control Panel
</h4>
This has sixteen toggle buttons, representing the 'marks' in the
director code
that will be sent.  Any appropriate group of these may be set: the
emitted event will contain all of them.
<P>
A button at the bottom of the panel may be used to send the signal
directly, independent of arriving data.
