Trigger Decision Module

The Trigger Decision Modules (TDM) has the task of taking the trigger decision. It also takes care of all sort of delays, time-of-flight and so on, see here. The following table describes the parameters. The main stakeholder of the TDM is the Machine Protection System.

Note: With the new conecpt of 'Bunch 2 Bucket Light', the TDM may become obsolate (except SIS100 extraction).

what	description	direction	source	comment
#1 trigger	bucket label signal	in	group DDS injection ring	BNC male 50 Ohm, same signal for extraction and injection ring
bunch gap label	same as #1 trigger ??	in	group DDS injection ring	BNC male 50 Ohm, same signal for extraction and injection ring
EKDC	extraction kicker delay compensation	in	LSA	required at extraction machine
IKDC	injection kicker delay compensation	in	LSA	required at injection machine
synch-win	synchronization window	in	B2B	required at injection machine
beam abort	trigger for emergency extraction	in	MPS
B2B inhibit	inhibit for normal extraction	in	MPS
