This tutorial presents the general features of the Trigger Framework (TFW) used in Run II, focusing on its various components and functions. Dan Edmunds from Michigan State University discusses the DAQ context, beam structure, and hardware implementation. The presentation covers Level 1 and Level 2 functions, trigger decision logic, and monitoring capabilities. It also includes simplified diagrams to illustrate the flow of information within the system and its connections to trigger control computers. Additional references for further information are provided.

Trigger Framework Tutorial The purpose of this talk is to present the general features of the Trigger Framework and its associated components in a tutorial presentation. This is done by showing the functions of the Trigger Framework from the viewpoint of a number of different systems. Dan Edmunds Michigan State University 14-Apr-2009
