What is a FirstWatch Trigger?
A FirstWatch “trigger” is a representation of data based on a set of user-defined data filter criteria using one or more FirstWatch analytical methods. Triggers draw data from one or more data sources, like CAD, ProQA, RMS and ePCR. Typically, data is consumed as events; each event is uniquely identified and has a date time stamp. Each event can also be supplemented with additional information, such as location and comments. » Learn more about Triggers
