  1. Monitoring for the EMEC/HEC Combined Run in August HEC/FCAL/Combined Testbeam Meeting 16 April 2002 Rob McPherson for the UVic group (Fincke, Kanaya, Keeler, Lefebvre, Sobie)

  2. Overview • Previous testbeam periods: • hec_adc used to monitor HEC testbeam runs as we took the data (or immediately afterwards) • hec_adc ran locally on the online HP, and read data directly from its disks before runs were archived • hec_adc had nearly full offline analysis functionality • For 2002 combined EMEC/HEC run: • Do not want to upgrade hec_adc to HEC-ROD or EMEC data • Want to push directly to athena-based system which will use the offline analysis tools • Will provide simple and basic online monitoring to ensure that we are taking quality data Rob McPherson

  3. athena HEC testbeam tools (from Kanaya) • LArHECTBCnv: converts EPIO to TDS • This is the core routine for getting usable data • LArHECTBPed: calculates pedestals • LArHECTBAna: offline analysis New athena package: • LArHECTBMon: produces simple HEC (and EMEC) monitoring histograms • Simple set needed for data and beam diagnostics • Will use similar paw interface for shift crew monitoring of data Rob McPherson

  4. Progress and Plans • LArHECTBCnv • athena 3.1.0 • HEC ROD data ready (technical run data with much help from Pavol and Sepp) • EMEC ROD data: dummy routine • athena 4.0.0 • Will be used for August test beam • LArHECTBMon • athena 3.0.0 • Used for development • Basic set of HEC histograms ready • athena 3.1.0 then 4.0.0 • Soon • Interactive paw kumac for shift crew • Under development Rob McPherson

  5. Implementation • LArHECTBMon • Currently running on lxplus.cern.ch with new hectbmon account • Interactive shell script automatically generates jobOptions file for athena • Technical run data files fetched as needed from disks on atlhp-h6 with ftp automatically • Currently: cannot “chase” daq with monitoring • Can also read data from castor … • Job runs, produces histos • Everything archived • Better to run directly on daq linux PC Rob McPherson

  6. Histograms etc. …(under development) • Event-by-event • Channel-by-channel • Pedestal from first time slice • Raw ADC for each time slice • Pedestal subtracted ADC (for each time slice?) • Sums • Total energy • Energy sums by longitudinal depth • Energy sums for “standard points” • Run-by-run • Channel-by-channel (moments stored in event loop) • Pedestal mean and noise • Mean pedestal subtracted energy • Various global quantities • Particle type, cryo position, table position, … Rob McPherson

  7. Plans • Expand monitoring histograms • Include EMEC ?! • Clean up paw kumac file for shift crew • Install on DAQ linux PC (when possible) • Be ready for August testbeam period … More info: • Monitoring software info, Web-based Tutorials for athena-based HEC TB analysis… See links: http://particle.phys.uvic.ca/~web-atlas/atlas/hec/beamtest_software/hec_athena/ Rob McPherson
