#Na62 L1 and L2 trigger test framework The na62-trigger-test framework can be used to execute L1 and L2 trigger algorithms outside the PC-Farm. It uses only a lightweight part of the pc-farm libraries and can therefore easily be installed.

The algorithms are executed with data coming from special files (see InputFileFormat) storing TDC entries in a format similar to the data sent by the readout boards. The files are converted to the MEP format used for the communication between the readout boards and the PC-Farm. Using the MEP data the whole event building is executed the same way it is done within the online pc-farm. In the case of the GigaTracker, the files are converted to the SDE format instead of the MEP format. Instead of forwarding accepted events to the merger PC a statistics file (see OutputFormat) is written which can be used to crosscheck the functionality of the L1/L2 trigger algorithms.
