+\chapter{Introduction}
+\label{cha:Introduction}
+
+The FTM (FACT Trigger Master) board collects the trigger primitives from all
+40 FTU boards (FACT Trigger Unit) and generates the trigger signal for the
+FACT camera. The trigger logic is a 'n-out-of-40' majority coincidence of all
+trigger primitives. Beside the trigger, the FTM board also generates a
+trigger-ID (see chapter \ref{cha:Trigger-ID}). It is controlled by the main
+control software via ethernet. Two auxiliary RS-485 interfaces are also
+available.
+
+In addition to the trigger, the FTM board also generates the other fast
+control signals: Time-Marker (TIM), DRS \cite{DRS4} reference clock (CLD) and
+reset. These four fast control signals are distributed to the FAD (FACT Analog
+to Digital) boards via the two FFC (FACT Fast Control) boards. The FTM board
+also provides via the TIM line the signal for the DRS timing calibration. In
+order to generate the CLD DRS reference clock, as well as the time-marker
+signal for DRS timing calibration, the FTM board uses a clock conditioner
+\cite{LMK03000}.
+
+The FTM board has two counters, the 'timestamp counter' and the 'on-time
+counter'. While the 'timestamp counter' runs continously (counting up,
+resetted by e.g. a 'start run'), the 'on-time counter' only counts when the
+camera trigger is enabled.
+
+The FTM board further serves as slow control master for the 40 FTU boards. The
+slow control of the FTU boards and the distribution of the trigger-ID to the
+FAD boards are performed via dedicated RS-485 buses. Because the FAD as well
+as the FTU boards are arranged in crates of 10 boards each, the FTM board has
+four connectors, one for each crate. Running over these connectors there are
+two RS-485 buses (one for FTU slow control and one for the trigger-ID) besides
+the busy signal from the FAD boards and the crate reset.
+
+In addition, the FTM board controls the two FLPs (FACT Light Pulser) via four
+LVDS signals each. Light pulser~1 is located in the mirror dish, light
+pulser~2 inside the camera shutter. There are also digital auxiliary in- and
+outputs according to the NIM (Nuclear Instrumentation Module) standard, for
+example for external triggers and veto, and to have the signals accessible.
+
+The main component of the FTM board is a FPGA (Xilinx Spartan
+XC3SD3400A-4FGG676C), fulfilling the main functions within the board. The
+purpose of this document is to provide specifications needed for the
+development of the firmware of this FPGA and the software (called 'main
+control' in the following) controlling the FTM board. For further information
+about the FTM board hardware please refer to \cite{FTM-Schematics}.
+
+\chapter{Trigger-ID}
+\label{cha:Trigger-ID}
+
+For each processed trigger the FTM board generates a unique trigger-ID to be
+broadcasted to all FAD boards and added to the event data. This trigger-ID
+consists of a 32 bit trigger number, a two byte trigger type indicator and a
+checksum. The transmission protocol for the trigger-ID broadcast is shown in
+table \ref{tab:Trigger-ID broadcast}.
+
+\begin{table}[htbp]

+6 & CRC-8-CCITT (checksum)\\\hline
+\end{tabular}
+\caption{The transmission protocol to broadcast the trigger-ID to the FAD boards}
+\label{tab:Trigger-ID broadcast}
+\end{table}
+
+A Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) over byte 0 - 5 is used to evaluate the
+integrity of the trigger-ID. An 8-CCITT CRC has been chosen which is based on
+the polynomial $x^8 + x^2 + x + 1$ (00000111, omitting the most significant
+bit). The resulting 1-byte checksum comprises the last byte of the trigger-ID.
+The transmission of the trigger-ID to the FAD boards is done by means of
+dedicated RS-485 buses (one per crate).
+
+In the first byte of the trigger type indicator (see table
+\ref{tab:Trigger-Type 1}) n0 - n5 indicate the number of trigger primitives
+required for a trigger, thus the 'n' of the 'n-out-of-40' majority
+coincidence. The two flags 'external trigger 1' and 'external trigger 2',
+when set, indicate a trigger from the corresponding NIM inputs. See also
+section \ref{sec:Static-data-block} and table \ref{tab:FTM-majority} for
+further information.

+\end{table}
+
+The 'TIM source' bit in 'Trigger-Type 2' (see table \ref{tab:Trigger-Type 2})
+indicates the source of the timemarker signal: a '0' indicates the timemarker
+being produced in the FPGA while a '1' indicates the timemarker coming from
+the clock conditioner. The flags 'LP\_1' and 'LP\_2' are set when the
+corresponding lightpulser has flashed while the 'pedestal' flag is set in case
+of a pedestal (random) trigger. An event having none of these flags set
+indicates a physics event. The bits 'LP\_set\_0' to 'LP\_set\_3' are used to
+code information about the light pulser settings. They only have a meaning in
+case of calibration events.
+
+\chapter{FTM Commands}
+\label{cha:FTM-Commands}
+
+The communication between the FTM board and the main control, including the
+corresponding commands, protocols and data, is based on 16-bit words and
+big-endian. This is to facilitate the data-transmission over the Wiznet W5300
+ethernet interface \cite{W5300}.
+
+The basic structure of all commands is the same and given in table
+\ref{tab:FTM-command-structure}. After a start delimiter, the second word
+identifies the command. Next there is a parameter further refining the
+command, e.g. what to read. The fourth and fifth words are spares and should
+contain zeros. Starting from the sixth word, an optional data block of
+variable size is following. This data block differs in length and content
+depending on command and parameter. In case of 'read' instructions, the
+corresponding data block is sent back.
+
+%The FTM board must answer every command by sending back the appropriate data
+%block or by simply sending back the instruction where there is no datablock to
+%be sent back.  All 'read' commands to the FTM board do not contain any data
+%blocks, but the FTM boards response does.  In case of 'read' and 'write'
+%instructions, the datablock is to be sent back. When 'start run' or 'stop run'
+%commands are used, the FTM board 'mirrors' them, i.e. sends them back for
+%confirmation.
+

+\end{tabular}
+\caption{FTM command structure}
+\label{tab:FTM-command-structure}
+\end{table}
+
+So far six different commands are foreseen: 'read', 'write', 'start run',
+'stop run', 'ping FTUs' and 'crate reset' (see table
+\ref{tab:FTM-command-ID}). The command parameters of the 'read' command are
+shown in table~\ref{tab:FTM-read-command-param}. For the 'write' command there
+is no option because the static data block is the only data that can be
+written to the FTM board.

+In table \ref{tab:FTM-start-command-param} the parameters to start a run are
+listed. The type of the run is fully described in the FTM configuration
+(static data block, see section~\ref{sec:Static-data-block}), which always has
+to be sent by the main control before starting a run. Therefore the only
+option is to start an "endless" run or to take X events instead. In the latter
+case X is defined by a two words (32 bit) long unsigned integer, making up the
+command data block. The 'start run' command enables the transmission of
+trigger signals (physics, calibration or pedestal) to the FAD boards and
+resets the trigger and time counters. There is no parameter for stopping a
+run. If a number of events has been specified ('take X events'), the run will
+terminate if either the 'stop run' command is received or the requested number
+of events is reached.

+\chapter{FTM data blocks}
+\label{cha:FTM-data-block}
+
+The trigger master features two main data blocks, named 'static data block'
+and 'dynamic data block' in the following. They are implemented in the
+firmware as block-RAM. In addition, there is the so-called 'FTU list', which
+is generated only on request ('ping FTUs' command). If any of these blocks is
+sent to the main control (either automatically or on demand), a header with a
+size of eleven words is added. This header is identical for all data blocks
+and contains solely read-only information: the FTM board ID (57-bit Xilinx
+device DNA \cite{ds557, ds610, wp267, wp266}), a firmware ID and the readings
+of the trigger counter and time stamp counter. The header structure is
+summarized in table~\ref{tab:FTM-header}.

+
+\section{Static data block}
+\label{sec:Static-data-block}
+
+The static data block contains all the settings needed to configure and
+operate the FTM. It has to be written by the main control each time before a
+run is started or, in general, some component has to be reprogrammed. Single
+register access is not foreseen for the moment. In addition, whenever the FTM
+board receives a new static data block, it performs a complete reconfiguration
+including a reprogramming of the
+FTUs. Table~\ref{tab:FTM-trigger-master-static-data-block} summarizes the
+static data block. More details about the individual registers can be found in
+the subsequent tables.
+
+%These settings are readable and writable by the main control using the
+%corresponding commands 'read static data block' or 'write static data block',
+%respectively.  There is one exception from writability: In case the static
+%data block is read back, the first eleven words (address 0..A) are identical
+%with the dynamic data block and the trigger list shown in
+%\ref{tab:FTM-trigger-master-dynamic-data-block} and
+%\ref{tab:FTM-trigger-list}.  These first eleven words can only be read and not
+%written.  The board ID is supposed to be the Xilinx device DNA \cite{ds557,
+%  ds610, wp267, wp266}, the 57 bit device ID of the FPGA.  When using the
+%'write static data block' command, the static data block must start with the
+%'general settings register' at address 0x00B. So there is an offset in the
+%addresses of 0x00B between the 'read-out-version' and the 'write-version' of
+%the static data block.

+\caption{Overview of the FTM static data block}
+\label{tab:FTM-trigger-master-static-data-block}
+\end{longtable}
+
+The FTM general settings register is detailed in table
+\ref{tab:FTM-general-settings-register}. The 'TIM\_CLK' bit defines whether
+the time marker is generated by the FPGA ('TIM\_CLK' = 0, default for physics
+data taking), or whether it is generated by the clock conditioner ('TIM\_CLK'
+= 1, e.g. for DRS timing calibration). The 'ext\_veto', 'ext\_trig\_1' and
+'ext\_trig\_2' bits enable (1) or disable (0) the NIM inputs for the external
+veto and trigger signals, respectively. In order to select which trigger
+sources are active during a run, the bits 'LP1', 'LP2', 'ped' and 'trigger'
+are foreseen (0 disabled, 1 enabled). During a physics run, for example,
+'LP1', 'ped' and 'trigger' should all be set to generate interleaved
+calibration and pedestal events as well as activate the 'n-out-of-40' trigger
+input. For a didicated pedestal run only 'ped' should be set, since in this
+case the FTM sends directly a trigger to the FADs. For calibration runs it
+depends on whether the external (LP1) or internal (LP2) light pulser is used:
+For the first case 'LP1' and 'trigger' have to be set, since here the full
+trigger chain is involved and the camera triggers based on G-APD signals. For
+the second case only 'LP2' is needed, because the shutter is closed and the
+FTM sends directly the trigger signal to the FADs (like for pedestal
+events). Bits 8 to 15 of the general settings register are not used up to now.

+In order to define the amplitude and characteristics of the light pulses that
+are generated by the LP1 and the LP2 system, the registers 'LP1 amplitude' and
+'LP2 amplitude' are used, respectively. These registers are presented in
+table~\ref{tab:LP1-amplitude-register} and
+table~\ref{tab:LP2-amplitude-register}. In general the light pulser systems
+are controlled from the FTM by means of four control lines: The first line
+defines the amplitude of the calibration events by sending a gate/pulse with
+an adjustable length (bits 0 to 3 in the amplitude registers). With the second
+and third line additional LEDs can be switched on in the calibration systems
+(bits 13 and 14). The fourth line is used to overdrive the LP systems and to
+generate a very fast timing pulse. To do so, bit 15 has to be set to 1.

+
+In addtion, there are several registers in the static data block to define
+delays (e.g. for the trigger). Also a general dead time to be applied after
+each trigger can be set (to compensate for the delay of the busy line). The
+clock conditioner settings are specified at address 0x00D to 0x01C (LMK03000
+from National Semiconductor, for more details see \cite{LMK03000}). Starting
+at address 0x020, the FTU settings are stored. The FTM always holds the
+complete FTU parameters in the static data block. For the meaning of these
+registers, please refer to the FTU firmware specifications document
+\cite{FTUspecs}. In case not all FTUs are connected during e.g. the testing
+phase, or a FTU is broken, the 'active FTU list' registers can be used to
+disable certain boards.
+
+\section{Dynamic data block}
+\label{sec:Dynamic-data-block}
+The dynamic data block shown in table \ref{tab:FTM-dynamic-data-block}
+contains permanently updated data stored inside the FTM FPGA. It contains the
+actual on-time counter reading, the board temperatures and the trigger rates
+measured by the FTUs. This data block is updated and sent periodically by the
+FTM. Thus the main control software receives periodically a corresponding data
+package via ethernet. Usually the shortest counting interval of the FTUs
+('prescaling' register) defines the period. The on-board 12-bit temperature
+sensors are MAX6662 chips from Maxim Products. For more information about
+these components and their data see \cite{MAX6662}. When sending the dynamic
+data block, the header defined in table~\ref{tab:FTM-header} is added at the
+beginning.

+When the FTM board receives the 'ping all FTUs' instruction, it sends a ping
+command to all FTU boards and gathers the FTU boards responses to a list. This
+list is called 'FTU list' and shown in table \ref{tab:FTU-list}. The FTM only
+accepts a ping when no run is ongoing (defined by the 'start run' and 'stop

+
+Because there are four connectors for the RS-485 buses, one for each crate,
+there will be a full scan for all addresses on every connector.  In case there
+is no response to a 'ping' on a certain address, there will be up to two
+repetitions. A responding FTU board will get an entry into the FTU list (table
+\ref{tab:FTU-list}) including the number of 'ping' sent until response. The
+crate number (connector number) and the number of pings are coded together
+with the FTU board address as shown in table
+\ref{tab:FTU-crate-number-and-address}. While 'Cr0' and 'Cr1' indicate the
+crate number (connector number), 'pings\_0' and 'pings\_1' contain the number
+of 'pings' until response of an FTU board, both coded in binary. The 'DNA' of
+the FTU board is the device DNA \cite{ds557, ds610, wp267, wp266} of the FPGA
+on the responding FTU board. This is a unique 57 bit serial number
+unambiguously identifying every Xilinx FPGA. In the most significant word (bit
+63 ... 48) bits 63 town to 57 are filled with zeros.

+\chapter{FTU communication error handling}
+\label{cha:Error-handling}
+
+When the FTM board is communicating with a FTU board via RS-485, the FTU board
+has to respond within 5 ms. If this timeout expires, or the response sent back
+by the FTU board is incorrect, the FTM resends the datapacket after the
+timeout. If this second attempt is still unsuccessful, a third and last
+attempt will be made by the FTM board. An error message will be sent to the
+central control whenever a FTU board does not send a correct answer after the
+first call by the FTM board. This message (see table~\ref{tab:error-message})
+contains, after the standard header (see table~\ref{tab:FTM-header}), the
+number of unsuccessful calls and the data packet sent to the FTU board in
+these unsuccessful calls. In order to avoid massive error messages for
+e.g. test setups with single FTUs, the 'active FTU list' can be employed to
+disable FTUs from the bus. In that case the FTM will not try to contact the
+corresponding boards.
