vfat_controllerupdates JuhaPetäjäjärvi Online WG, 17.3.2009
Outline • TOTFED class • vfat_controller updates Get the latest software version from Subversion repository: https://bigbrother.cern.ch/svn/TDAQ/Software
TOTFED class • Based on the HAL library • VME access functionality • Address tables • XDAQ compatible • Class doesn’t implement user interface
vfat_controller updates • VME readout added to all the scans • Software now controls FEC, TTCci and FED • Reading 1 event at the time • Max trigger rate ~1kHz (one VFAT) • Gets slower while adding more VFATs (all commands are consecutive)
