Description
The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab searches for the charged-lepton flavor violating neutrino-less conversion of a negative muon into an electron in the field of an aluminum nucleus. If no events are observed, in three years of running Mu2e will improve the previous upper limit by four orders of magnitude in search sensitivity.
Mu2e’s Trigger and Data Acquisition System (TDAQ) uses {\it otsdaq} as its solution. Developed at Fermilab, {\it otsdaq} uses the {\it artdaq} DAQ framework and {\it art} analysis framework, under-the-hood, for event transfer, filtering, and processing.
{\it otsdaq} is an online DAQ software suite with a focus on flexibility and scalability and provides a multi-user, web-based, interface accessible through a web browser.
{\it otsdaq} supports many existing front-end boards and firmware modules, and also allows for user-defined front-end interface plugins that communicate with the detector Read Out Controllers firmware of the detectors through the Data Transfer Controller.
A Detector Control System (DCS) for monitoring, controlling, alarming, and archiving has been developed using EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) open-source Platform. The DCS System has also been integrated into {\it otsdaq} with a user-defined interface.
