Detailed Description

The class allows the general configuration of the FD electronic.

The tasks to do are

management of the active columns. This is of importance, if not all of the columns are present.
initialization
start / stop feature via the inhibit signal. If the inhibit is enabled the system will stop at the next second strobe.

Changes:

The command releaseInhibit will perform a restart after software and pagefull inhibit. ak 7.2.01
Do not use the command to access the inhibit source any more - not really necessary! ak 7.2.01
No modification of the inhibit source in the commands setInhibit and releaseInhibit.
Implementation added for the current monitor, ak 19.2.01

Todo:: Read the parameter for init from the configuration file!

Member Function Documentation

virtual unsigned long FEbaseConfiguration::checkColumnList ( ) [pure virtual]

Check all columns for a device being present.

The result is stored and can be used by the getColumnList command.

Returns:: A list of bit values for each column: 1 existent 0 empty

Implemented in FE4configuration, and FEconfiguration.

virtual unsigned long FEbaseConfiguration::getColumnList ( ) [pure virtual]

The configuration is check once at the start of the system.

The results are stored and can be read with this command.

Returns:: A list of bit values for each column: 1 existent 0 empty

Implemented in FE4configuration, and FEconfiguration.

virtual int FEbaseConfiguration::getInhibitSource ( ) [inline, virtual]

Do not use this command!

If the inhibit signal occurs the system will stop. This signals is triggered if all pages are marked as written and there are no free pages left. Beside this normal mode of operation the inhibit signal can be initiated also by the external trigger or a software signal. Use this method to define the allowed sources.

Returns:: 0 internal or software inhibit, 1 external or software inhibit, 2 internal, external or software inhibit, 3 software inhibit

Reimplemented in FEconfiguration, and FE4configuration.

Definition at line 126 of file febaseconfiguration.h.

{ return 0; };

virtual void FEbaseConfiguration::init ( ) [pure virtual]

Initializes the FD electronic.

Detailed list of configuration done:

Inhibit source = SLT_INHIBIT_INT (internal + software inhibit)
Trigger source = SLT_TRIGGER_SW (software trigger)
NxPg source = SLT_NXPG_INT (internal source)
Testpuls source = SLT_TESTPULS_NO (disabled)
Load the appropriate sensor configuration
Configure the Flt FPGAs (Release reset, set to run mode)

Not changed (by now):

Set the IR masks,
Second strobe = 0 (second strobe from GPS clock) Enable NxPg
Load the alarm thresholds for the sensors
Set the time of the GPS clock (seconds)
Load the gain for the analog board and send the initialization sequence to the ADCs
Load the parameters of the hit rate control
Clear all pages

The system is not started through this command, it will still be inhibited afterwards. To start the system use the command releaseInhibit.
