DAQTree is a standard JANA plugin that can be used to output information about standard DAQ objects to root trees.

Usage

Once everything is set up (as on the gluon cluster), it can be run using the following command:

hd_root -PPLUGINS=DAQ,DAQTree codafile.coda -o outputfile.root

The -PPLUGINS=DAQ is required to generate the low level DAQ object which are then saved to the tree.

The -PHDDM:ENABLE=0 switch is required to stop the analyzer from wasting time trying to interpret the file as a HDDM file. Later developments to the HDDM parser have made this unnecessary.

Data Types

The currently supported object types are:

   Df125PulseIntegral
   DF1TDCHit
   DF1TDCTriggerTime
   Df250WindowRawData 
   Df250PulseRawData 
   Df250PulseIntegral 
   Df250PulseTime 
   Df250TriggerTime 

The object types that will be supported in future are:

   Df125PulseIntegral
   Df125PulseTime
   Df125TriggerTime
   DF1TDCHit
   DF1TDCTriggerTime
   Df250PulseIntegral
   Df250PulseRawData
   Df250PulseTime
   Df250StreamingRawData
   Df250TriggerTime
   Df250WindowRawData
   Df250WindowSum

Notes

DAQTree is currently not compiled or installed by default because it depends on the DAQ plugin. The DAQ plugin is not currently compiled by default since it depends on evio, which is not typically necessary for standard simulation reconstruction. This may change. First compile and install sim-recon, the the DAQ plugin and then the DAQTree plugin.

See the Doxygen entry for this plugin for a look into the internal structure.
