CACTUS is a ground-based Air Cherenkov Telescope located at the Solar 2 facility in California, and operated by UC, Davis. It uses an array of 168 heliostats and a camera with 80 photomultiplier tubes to detect Cherenkov radiation produced by air showers. CACTUS incorporates novel techniques of time projection imaging and pattern triggering, implemented in FPGAs, thus improving upon the first generation sampling ACTs. Here we describe the telescope and its readout and triggering electronics.
