ChangeLog - Package fdhwlib
Hardware access library for the Auger Fluorescence Detector
Andreas Kopmann <kopmann@ipe.fzk.de> (ak)
Known bugs
- The gpsserver uses always the actual number of leap seconds
to calculate all time stamps. In case of a leap second change
the older second counters might be wrong.
- The leap second table in aktimelib.ini has been maintained manually.
This can be also done using the new leap second flag of the
gps clock!
- The variables FE_INIPATH are used also in general functions that
can also be used with other projects.
20.01.06 ak
Changes in 2.0.25

Changes in 2.0.24
- libPCIDMA now runs on 64 bit machines (class PbusPCIDMA: rawRead, rawWrite, readBlock, writeBlock),

hitrate controller (Define USE_TINT_WORKAROUND).
15-05-2003 ak
- Ported FEdata to the lasted FD-das version (new name FDEventLib).
- Checking for errors when closing a file descriptor connected
with SimpleServer.
- Improved shell commands: Now a warning is printed in case of
unknown commands.
- Improved output of Slt::checkActualTime(). If on of the telescopes
is connected to the Pbus but not accessable the function will not
throw an PbusError any more.
12-05-2003 ak
Changes in version 0.9
- Updated gpsserver clesses, added interface for nearly all functions
now in the class GpsUnit. Status+help output of the gpsserver class
in interactive mode.
08-04-2003 ak
Changes in version 0.8
- Added classes to the FE layer to handle page status and
time stamp. The signature of some functions in FEevent has been
changed to work with the new classes (instead of the Hw-version).
- Added some more operators/functions to SltPageStatus and SltTime.
26-03-2003 ak
- PbusError is now a special class of runtime_error
19-03-2003 ak
- Test and diagnosis functions added.
13-03-2003 ak
- Extended the Ts-classes to access directly the electronics
21-02-2003 ak
- Extended the SltTime class to handle all possible
time stamp formats. By default always the lastest format
is assumed. All trigger information are now integrated
in a single instance of SltTime.
19-02-2003 ak
- Introduced a new Hw version 3.10. While V3.00 brought
the extension to 64 pages, the new version changed the
time stamp format and supports the dead time counters
19-02-2003 ak
- Fixed bug in dma mode. To request the transfer status the wrong
command was used that caused a dead lock?!
17-02-2003 ak
- Fixed bug in simulation mode.
Access to certain registers (e.g. SltSubSecondCounter) released too many
semaphores and so disabled any synchronisation in any mode!!!
13-02-2003 ak
- Added support for offset in SltTime.
10-02-2003 ak
- Added Veto and Dead time counters.
The extension effects Slt control register and Slt status
registers. In addition some new registers have been added
to request and reset the new counters.
- Suspend mode for the Flts is no longer supported
- Changed the organsation of the Slt register definition to
get a more flexible structure. This was necessary because
of the heavily changing registers.
- The elongation of the test pulse timing vectors do not
effect the library but are now mentioned in the documentation.
30-01-2003 ak
Changes in version 0.7
- Integrated documentation of the subpackages into a single
doxygen project.
13.01.2003 ak
- Added functions for the access of the gps unit
(Hw/gpsserver, Hw/gpsunit)
- Implemented background loop for more than a single
telescope. (FEdata/tsbackgroundreader, FDdata/tsbackgroundrecorder)
18-12-2002 ak
Changes in Version 0.61
- Small changes in the scripts makeAll to make it easier
adjustable to the system environment (tested with environemt
in Lyon). To build the daq dependant part set the variables
ROOTSYS and FD_ROOT.
But: Installation is still quite complicated.
05-08-2002
- Curses functions removed.
If special packages are required by certain function
a new (specialized) class should be created (E.g. feexplorer).
- The (few) scripts required for the build process are now
fixed to the standard shell (#!/usr/bin).
23-07-2002 ak
Changes in Version 0.6
----------------------------------------------------------
---- Modifications for hardware version 3 -------
----------------------------------------------------------
- To take account of the changes in the Hardware version 3 the following
changes where necessary:
* The slotID of Flt + Slt was increased by one. (1..20 + 21)
* The address scheme was modified (more Memory).
* Number of pages doubled.
* Length of version field in FltCntrlStatus register changed.
* current monitor calls to the pbus disabled.
* Page status register doubled (now: pageStatusLow, pageStatusHigh).
* Length + address of the time stamp register vectors changed.
* New class added for access to multiplicity memory
- New class SltPageStatus for handling of the pages status information.
For hardware access the class SltPageStatusReg is used.
- Code for the different Pbus variants seperated in now three files:
Pbus.cpp, PbusSim.cpp and PbusProxy.cpp.
07-06-2002 ak
Changes in Version 0.5
- Added Pbus::isConnected to request the status of the connection
to the electronic
27-03-2002 ak
- Option added to create Subrack without initializing the Pbus.
Only useful if a second instance of Subrack should be created in the
same process.
26-03-2002 ak
- Pbus changed to allow IP connection to multiple telescopes
21-03-2002 ak
- Number of messages generated by SimpleSocket and Semaphore decreased.
The functions worked quite stable, so that this information seems to
be redundand now.
22-03-2002 ak
Changes in Version 0.42
- akshell: Command execution from script file fixed.
The command "quit" had no effect in a script.
13-03-2001 ak
- New Command FEtiming::setActualTime() synchronizes
PC clock and Hardware second counter. FEtiming::setSecond()
adds one second because the time writen with the next
second strobe.
15-02-2002 ak
- PbusSimulation mode extended: New addressing scheme,
broadcast and Slt special write register supported.
Implementation of the page controller for the
simulation added. Status: Pre-release!
15-02-2002 ak
Changes in Version 0.41
- SimpleServer moved from pbusdaemon to akutil.
- Implementation switches moved from Pbus.h to Pbus.cpp
27-11-2001 ak
- Counter for block transfer error added. The results
are written to the log file.
26-11-2001 ak
- The command Slt::setActualTime() was changed from
UTC (UNIX time) to GPS time. The system (hardware
is now initialized with the correct GPS time).
Function to check the setting of the second counter
added (Slt::checkActualTime). The required number of
leap seconds is read from the ini file (FE.ini).
- Documentation added for compiling FD-das libraries
to use with MSVC.
22-11-2001 ak
Changes in Version 0.40
- New feature for FltMemory::read() and FEImage::read() added.
The status flag at the end of the
copy indicates whether a overflow has occured in one of the time bins.
Especially when reading only few pixel this allows to ommit saving the
virtual channels. Due to the status the read functions now have a return
value. So after re-compilation all programs should be runnable without
modifications.
- DMA support added.
Another library called "PbusDMA" has been added to the zoo of Pbus libs.
To use the DMA features the uEnable design has to support the DMA
transfer. The transfer rate increases due to the DMA transfer from
<0.9MB/s with "PbusDirect" to 2.7MB/s. To use the DMA option link your
program with PbusDMA instead of PbusDirect.
The FltMemory::read() function uses now only one intead of two
Pbus::readBlock() calls. The address pointer is shifted automatically
when the end of the page is reached.
09-11-2001 ak
Changes in Version 0.33
- libFEdata.so renamed to libFEdataDyn.so to avoid
linking the wrong library because of the same name with
libFEdata.a. The (new) dynamic library is installed
to /usr/software/fdhwlib/lib
07-11-01
- Windows: Skript to generate all libraries from the command
line added.
23-10-2001 ak
- Function hw/Slt::setActualTime added to synchronize
the Hardware time with the local PC clock
23-10-2001 ak
- The class akInifile searches now automatically in
up to three dierectories for the inifile.
Invocation of ini file changed in Pbus.cpp and
CalibControl.cpp.
22-10-2001 ak
- Class TsPattern added to analyse the data of
third level trigger with Roots CINT.
ak
Changes in Version 0.32
- The class Hw/SltPattern added to present some
operations helping to analyse the trigger memory.
Like the class Hw/SltTime this class does not need
a connection to the hardware - it just implements
the data structure of the trigger memory.
08-10-2001 ak
Changes in Version 0.31
- Before setting the paramaters in all columns the presence
of the boards is checked. This affects the methods
FEconfiguration::init, FEconfiguration::initCurrentMonitor
and FEimage::setStatisticParameters
25-09-2001 ak
- SltTime::setNanoSec is fixed.
25-09-2001 ak
Earlier changes:
- ak 2.6.01: Renamed the library libutil.a to libakutil.a
The directory util has been moved to akutil.
- ak 21.5.01: Errors in the functions for the
hitrate controller fixed.
- ak 29.3.01: Due to changes in Flt version 2.1
there are two new registers (ApprSumX_2 and CannOnOff) and
the interface of the registers MarginsL, MarginsH and
PeriphStatus changed.
- ak 19.2.01: Initialization of the current monitor
added. The readout for the current monitor is tested
successfully.
- ak 7.2.01: Some functions in the classes FEconfiguration
and FEevent and FEimage are now obsolet. Do not use them
any more. The command FEconfiguration::inhibitRelease
has been modified due to changes in the SLT Control FGPA.
To access the ADC Memory arrays of type unsigned short
(NOT long) are required.
- 20.12.2000: New registers @ref Slt#PageMaintenance and
@ref Slt#RelPageFullInhibit introduced due changes in the
Control FPGA on the Slt board. Interupt mask and vector are
complemented by two new possible sources. ak
- 19.12.2000: Basedir for Sempahore SysV Key generation changed to $HAP_PATH.
Be aware not to use programms with different keys at the same time on the same machine, ak.
- 18.12.2000: SimpleSocket.readMsg(), obsolete statement deleted, ak
msg[nbytes]=0; // generate a valid string
1.7.5.1
