Create the sleeping trigger, and give it the event and action you need. Right click the trigger in the trigger list and select "initially off".

• Trigger 2
  • Events
    • -------- Add some event if needed --------
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Do something here --------

Create another trigger that turns on the sleeping trigger.
This trigger turns on Trigger 2, and turns off Trigger 1 when any Paladin type unit in the map dies. Use the event you need.

• Trigger 1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Paladin
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Trigger - Turn on Trigger 2 <gen>

So to make trigger sleep,that need to be-"initially off"?
so simple?

you can use variables bi boolean type, thats some kind of conndition that you can use like action. like in Aos maps for creating a troops.

• Initalization
  • Event
    • Map Initalization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set - StartSpawn = False

• Start Spawn
  • Event
    • Time Elapsed - 60 seconds
  • Connditions
  • Actions
    • Set Start Spawn = True
    • Create (unit) for (owner) etc.

• Periodic Spawn
  • Event
    • Every 30 seconds of game
  • Connditions
    • StartSpawn = True
  • Actions
    • Create (unit) for (owner) etc.

whit this way of trigering this last triger will not be activated until you set

• Set Start Spawn = True

and also you can whit other triger set it to False.
Example:

• Stop Spawn
  • Event
    • Unit Dies
  • Connditions
    • Unit type of trigering unit equal to Barrack
  • Actions
    • Set Start Spawn = False

It is more called as Passive Trigger
Yes, to make it Passive, just untick the Initially On box to make it Passive Trigger
That trigger will be On/Off through Trigger Action

To forcefully run another trigger without using an event, you could do:

• Trigger - Run Some Trigger <gen> (checking conditions)
