Detailed Description

Encapsulates a CAEN V755 module. The V775 module is a 32 channel multievent TDC. Programmatically, this module is a V785 ADC with front ends consisting of 32 channels of TAC (time to analog converters). The configuration parameters accepted by this module include:

• slot n - n is the VME slot number holding the VME card.
• threshold t[32] - t are the 32 thresholds in nanoseconds. Value will be computed taking into account the full scale selection.
• keepunder b - b is "on" or "off" depending on whether or not to keep data that does not make threshold.
• keepoverflow b - b is "on" or "off" depending on whether or not to keep overflow data.
• keepinvalid b - b is "on" or "off" depending on whether or not to keep data that is strobed in when the module is busy resetting.
• commonstop b - b is "on" to run in common stop mode, "off" to run in a common start mode.
• range t - Sets the tdc range in 1ns units. Note that the range of t is between 140 and 1200 and the resolution is good to about the nearest 4ns.
• card b - "on" to enable the card "off" to disable it.
• enable i[32] - 32 channel enables. Nonzero is enabled, zero disabled.
• multievent b - On to enable multi-event mode. In multievent mode, the module is not cleared in Prepare() otherwise it is.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CCAENV775::CCAENV775 (  const string &  rName, CTCLInterpreter &  rInterp )

Construct a CAEN V775 multievent TDC module. The underlying card is not constructed until initialization time... in order to give the user a chance to configure the module first. This is necessary because one of the key confuration parameters is the slot. In addition to constructing our base class, it is necessary to register our configuration parameters: range - The Full scale range in ns. commonstart - true if the module should be in common start mode, false for common stop. Parameters: rName  const string& [in] The name ofthis module. Definition at line 314 of file CCAENV775.cpp. References CConfigurableObject::AddBoolParam(), CDigitizerModule::AddIntParam(), DEFAULTRANGE(), CDigitizerModule::end(), CDigitizerModule::Find(), CDigitizerModule::ParameterIterator, and CIntConfigParam::setRange().

CCAENV775::~CCAENV775 (   )  [virtual]

Destructor, destroys the underlying card. Note that to delete a null pointer is a no-op so we can safely delete the pointer whether it exists or not. Definition at line 350 of file CCAENV775.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void CCAENV775::Clear (   )  [virtual]

Called to clear any pending data from the module. Reimplemented from CCAENModule.

void CCAENV775::Clear (   )  [virtual]

Called to clear data in the module prior to the first readout. Reimplemented from CCAENModule. Definition at line 448 of file CCAENV775.cpp. References CCAENModule::Clear().

virtual string CCAENV775::getType (   )  const [inline, virtual]

Return module type string (pure virt). Implements CDigitizerModule. Definition at line 375 of file include/CCAENV775.h.

virtual string CCAENV775::getType (   )  const [inline, virtual]

Return module type string (pure virt). Implements CDigitizerModule. Definition at line 375 of file CCAENV775.h.

virtual void CCAENV775::Initialize (   )  [virtual]

Initializes a module. This is the function that will actually create the underlying module driver object. The parameters are processed and used to configure it. Reimplemented from CCAENModule.

void CCAENV775::Initialize (   )  [virtual]

Performs module dependent initialization. If the module exists, delete it and remake it. This allows a module's slot to be reconfigured. The module is configured according to the parameters. that have been set. Not being able to locate a configuration parameter considered a fatal error since we put those parameters in in the constructor. This error will be signalled via a failed assertion. Reimplemented from CCAENModule. Definition at line 367 of file CCAENV775.cpp. References CDigitizerModule::end(), CDigitizerModule::Find(), CCAENModule::getCard(), CBoolConfigParam::getOptionValue(), CIntConfigParam::getOptionValue(), CCAENModule::Initialize(), and CDigitizerModule::ParameterIterator.

int CCAENV775::operator== (  const CCAENV775 &  aCCAENV775  )  const [private]

virtual void CCAENV775::Prepare (   )  [virtual]

Called on a per event basis to prepare the card to accept the next trigger. For the CAEN modules, this is a no-op, once initialized, they're ready to go. Reimplemented from CCAENModule.

void CCAENV775::Prepare (   )  [virtual]

This function is called on a per event basis to prepare the module to accept the next trigger. For the CAEN modules, no action is required. Reimplemented from CCAENModule. Definition at line 415 of file CCAENV775.cpp. References CCAENModule::Prepare().

virtual void CCAENV775::Read (  DAQWordBufferPtr &  rBuffer  )  [virtual]

Reads an event from the card into the current event buffer Parameters: rBuffer  (DAQWordBufferPtr& [modified]). Pointer like object to the target datat buffer. Data wil be read from the ADC to the location 'pointed to by the pointer. Note: The module is silently ignored if it has not yet caused a card to be instantiated. Reimplemented from CCAENModule.

void CCAENV775::Read (  DAQWordBufferPtr &  rBuffer  )  [virtual]

Reads out the section of the event that is contributed by this module. Parameters: rBuffer  CWordBufferptr& [modified] Pointer like object to the buffer. Data is read to where rBuffer 'points'. Returns: CWordBufferptr The buffer pointer after the readout is complete. Note: it's vaguely possible that this module has not been instantiated (e.g. no slot). In that case, we silently ignore the readout. Reimplemented from CCAENModule. Definition at line 436 of file CCAENV775.cpp. References CCAENModule::Read().
