Integrating Controls and Event Data

Abstract

This document describes the software that allows you to integrate controls and event data into a single event file. The mechanisms and theory of the software are described. A step by step recipe is given for taking existing readout software and fitting it into the necessary frameworks. Run time procedures are given that describe how to ensure that the data is available to the readout program, and sample scripts are shown that describe how to ensure that the controls data are logged to event files.
