Dear g12,
had anyone any change to look at this? Furthermore, I see other inconsistencies in the g12 trig table (table 3 in the note). For example, I never see trigger bit 8, that a part from L2, should be the same as trigger bit 1.
I see this effect also in MK thesis (fig. 93 pag 140) - trigger bit 2 is ON for some events, while trigger bit 8 is always OFF.

Thanks
Andrea
