8 -The MTCA based triggers have a jitter in the few ps range, the delay can be shifted in 1 ns steps (over many ms), one can choose between 10 Hz triggers, frequencies locked to the pulses (e.g. 1MHz) and the actual bunch patterns. A detailed description can be found in [[x2Timer manual>>attach:x2Timer.pdf]] ([[Design Paper>>url:http://ttfinfo2.desy.de/doocs/Timing/CDRv2.2short.pdf||shape="rect"]]).

10 10  in short: the triggers are for low impedance (~~50 OHM terminated ?? ), 5V triggers with an adjustable width. The main control panel for the x2 timer has the control options for the 3 front modules (connected with a RJ45 cable - connecting to a "trigger box" with 2 trigger exits (Lemo) each) and 8 Lemo exits at the back of the crate. in the BL-beamline case these triggers are connected to the BNC (patch panel) ports at the rack.
