51.2. Using the standard event orderer startup script

Since the event orderer is a library wrapped by Tcl commands, it is necessary to use a Tcl script to start the event orderer. If the standard monitoringand user interface is sufficent, you can use the standard event orderer startup script.. If the data acquisition system is installed in DAQROOT, you can start the event orderer using the standard startup script:


$DAQROOT/bin/startOrderer
            

It is also possible to start up more than one event orderer. Each event orderer must have a unique name. Supply that name on the command line e.g.:


$DAQROOT/bin/startOrderer  aName
           

Event orderer names are automatically qualified by your login name. There is therefore no supported way to connect clients to another user's event orderer.
