I agree. In some cases the manual may not be so easily accessible, 
but in explaining triggers, I think it should be quite helpful.

A few pointers:
You can toggle between track enable/mute mode and trigger mode on 
the fly--as if you have two sets of 16 buttons.

Triggers can be set up to:
(1) play note events (good for arps, in my opinion)
(2) play beats parts (good if you make use of beats)
(3) select patterns (good if want to do that)

Depending on which mode you are in, you can set each of the buttons 
(T1-->T16) to do different things.

(1) Assign the following for each button:
--note
--velocity
--latch (on/off)
--channel
--destination
----internal synth engine
----external synths (via midi)
----both internal synth engine and external midi gear
----sequencer (good for recording triggers int your patterns)
(2) See Arp menu structure for beats mode set up.
(3) Assign a pattern to each button
