Yes, of course! My typing fingers sometimes act out of brain control.

Well, chose the interface that suits you best. I usually only work in
the Presets page to type in what a switch shall send. Then I go
directly to the Banks page to hook up those patches to switches. I
have several alternative banks with different setups for different
rigs. Regarding the difference between "Triggers", "Patches" etc you
can just open up "Details" for one and you will see what option it
offers. Myself I mostly use Patches but also some Two-State effects
for saving space on my pedal (having each switch alternate between two
different MIDI Program change events gives me access to eight
different setups by only using four switches).
