| 1. Installation: |
| |
| Installation is done through the usual "./configure" and "make" commands to enable the use of this software with 32 bit and 64 bit systems. |
| Pre-requisites for offline and online modes: |
| a) Offline mode (support for histogramming and analysis): |
| - A newer (5.34 or higher) pro version of ROOT (https://root.cern.ch). |
| b) Online mode (support for histogramming, analysis and data acquisition): |
| - Perl developer package libperl-dev for installation of net-snmp (sudo apt-get install libperl-dev). |
| - Current version of net-snmp (http://www.net-snmp.org). |
| - A newer (5.34 or higher) pro version of ROOT (https://root.cern.ch). |
| - USB developer package libusb-dev (sudo apt-get install libusb-dev). |
| |
| Configure takes two arguments: |
| - First argument is the configure option (help, nomake, all, clean, compress). |
| - Second argument is the online/offline configure setting (only used when first argument is nomake or all), that enables the software to work with a connected CAMAC and scope (I), only a connected scope (S) or with no connected devices (O). |
| Installation is done through the usual "./configure" and "make" commands to enable the use of this software with 32 bit or 64 bit systems. |
| |
| Configure takes the following arguments: |
| - First argument is the configure option (help, nomake, all, clean, compress): |
| help = shows configure help |
| all = prepares OS dependent files and makes the needed usb daq libraries |
| nomake = only prepares OS dependent files |
| clean = cleans the installation to the base file structure (keeps the results directory) |
| compress = compresses the base installation into a tar-ball |
| - Second argument is the online/offline configure setting (only used when first argument is nomake or all), that enables the software to work with: |
| a connected CAMAC and scope (I) |
| only a connected scope (S) |
| with no connected devices (O) |
| - The following arguments set specific computer details and can be entered in any order: |
| a) --root-install=/path/to/root/directory -> The ROOT install directory, if it is not installed in a standard location (especially needed when running the program with superuser, since it usually does not have the required environment variables). |
| b) --snmp-install=/path/to/snmp/directory -> The NET-SNMP install directory, if it is not installed in a standard location. |
| c) --ostype=YYYY -> Optional argument to specifically set the OS type to either 32bit (YYYY = i686) or 64bit (YYYY = x86_64). If argument not supplied, the configure script will try to get this information automatically through uname. |
| |
| Running "./configure" or "./configure help" will give more information on specific uses. |
| Example: |
| ./configure all I |
| ./configure all I --root-install=/opt/root --snmp-install=/opt/net-snmp --ostype=i686 |
| |
| Makefile: |
| Once configuration is done, a Makefile will be generated and further installation is done by running "make". Running "make relib" will only recreate the libraries in case something has been edited in them. |
| 19,15 → 41,22 |
|---|
| Example: |
| make |
| |
| On first run of the program, make sure to copy the ./mpod/WIENER-CRATE-MIB.txt to the MIB directory in your installation of net-snmp. This can be in: |
| ~/.snmp/mibs |
| or |
| [/snmp/install/directory]/share/snmp/mibs |
| |

| 2. Running the software: |
| |
| The software requires an installation of ROOT with set environment variable $ROOTSYS and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Once installation is performed, use |
| Once installation is performed, use |
| ./start.sh |
| to start the software. Once the software starts it will let you know (in the terminal) if the CAMAC connection was correctly established. |
| to start the software in offline mode or |
| sudo ./start.sh |
| to start the software in online mode. Once the software starts, it will let you know (in the terminal) if connection to CAMAC was correctly established. |

| 3. Feature overview: |
| |
| The main window is divided into 5 subwindows: |
| a) Settings window: |
| 54,6 → 83,7 |
|---|
| - if using multiple files, use multiple file select or select all listed files |
| - files will be used in order displayed on the list |
| - to clear the complete list, use the clear list button |
| - to edit the header information of currently selected files, use the edit header button |
| - any opened measurement has an info display of its header at the bottom for easier navigation |
| |
| d) Histogram window: |
| 81,7 → 111,7 |
|---|
| - Relative PDE -> calculation of the relative PDE for the currently selected files |
| |
| c) Tools: |
| - Fieldpoint temperature sensor -> direct graphing of the fieldpoint temperature sensor (with settings for fieldpoint channel, start time and end time), output is a graph (if exporting) and a comma separated list saved to folder ./fieldpoint |
| - Fieldpoint temperature sensor -> direct graphing of the fieldpoint temperature sensor (with settings for fieldpoint channel, start time and end time), output is a graph (if exporting) and a comma separated list saved to folder ./fieldpoint. Updating the graph can cause unstable behavior. If possible, use ~/sipmscan/fieldpoint_standalone instead. |
| |
| d) Windows: |
| - Specific window tiling |
| 95,7 → 125,15 |

| 4. Change log: |
| |
| 5.5.2015 (Current Rev): |
| 17.7.2015 (Current Rev): |
| a) Fixed a problem with ADC peak fitting (peak fitting returning a segmentation fault). |
| b) Added support to edit file headers (in case, some were created at an older date and did not include some header information or there was a mistake in writing them). |
| c) Temperature data can only be retrieved when connected to the IJS network (IP = 178.172.43.xxx) and is disabled otherwise. |
| d) The relative PDE measurement now takes the incidence angle value directly from input files. |
| e) Currently, data acquisition only works on 32bit computers. |
| f) Fixed issue with program not correctly writting multiple channels. |
| |
| 5.5.2015 (Rev 128): |
| a) Added a header display for opened files in the histogram file selection window. This enables a quicker view of the measurement information. |
| b) Added an incidence angle input to be able to save sample rotation angle to headers of files. |
| c) Added support for the fieldpoint temperature sensor (FP RTD 122). Can now plot and export data from the sensor for a specific channel and specific time range. For now, this option only works if the PC you are using this program on is connected to an internet/ethernet connection at IJS. |
