Reorganized pXar configuration files for pixel modules |

To address this problem, the existing folder 'tbm10d' in /home/l_tester/L1_SW/pxar/data/ containing configuration for PROC V4 was renamed to 'tbm10d_procv4' and a new folder for PROC V3, 'tbm10d_procv3', was created. For backward compatibility, a symbolic link 'tbm10d' was created that points to 'tbm10d_procv4'.
The difference in the configurations is in the CtrlReg DAC value which is 9 for V3 and 17 for V4.
The following lines were also added in the [defaultParameters] section in /home/l_tester/L1_SW/elComandante/config/elComandante.conf
tbm10d_procv3: tbm10d_procv3
tbm10d_procv4: tbm10d_procv4 |
Since the new PH optimization code was added under the already existing PH test, the old configuration files would have to be updated to have the correct parameter values set for the expanded PH test. For this purpose, the old configuration folders were renamed
tbm10d_procv3 --> tbm10d_procv3_old
tbm10d_procv4 --> tbm10d_procv4_old
and new configuration files were re-generated from scratch
./mkConfig -d ../data/tbm10d_procv3 -t TBM10D -r proc600v3 -m
./mkConfig -d ../data/tbm10d_procv4 -t TBM10D -r proc600v4 -m
In addition, in both sets of configurations files, the configuration for the BB2 tab in the pXar GUI was moved from moreTestParameters.dat to testParameters.dat to have the BB2 tab available by default when starting pXar using these configuration files. |
