define for the Reset on: stage. The Reset on: stage can be set
to one of the following conditions:

•Pattern 1 (or 2) Entered — A pattern is entered on the last
edge that makes the pattern true (logical AND).
•Pattern 1 (or 2) Exited — A pattern is exited on the first edge
that makes the pattern false (logic NAND).
•Edge 1 (or 2)
•Pattern 1 and Edge 1
•Timeout
Terms that are grayed-out are not valid in the reset stage.

to a value other than X (don’t care).
