CalvisionDaq

DRS readout and analysis for Calvision.

Dependencies

Uses the calvision conda environment on the Calvision portable computer. Needs CAEN libraries which is a little bit of a mess at the moment (not in the git repo since they're proprietary?)

Building

Usual cmake build process:

git clone https://github.com/hhollenb/CalvisionDaq.git
cd CalvisionDaq
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make

Running

Executables will be in build/src/CalvisionDaq/exec. The current executables are:

• calibrate: Downloads and saves the digitizer's calibration files.
• readout: Multithreaded readout of raw digitizer data. Very fast if events are at risk of being dropped.
• decode: Decodes a raw digitizer data file into a root tree. Follows in real time the raw digitizer output. Because it's continuously following the raw data file, type q<Enter> to quit the decoding (handled asynchronously, so can be typed at any time).
• 'read_and_decode`: Reads and decodes the digitizer. Slower than readout/decode, and not tested yet.
