This is closely associated with minidaq. Log in as described in mini-daq above. This is really just paw that knows how to look at the spectra sorted by mini by default. There are 3 2d spectra defined. These are for each of the 6 FEE crates. The spectra are 401-406. The MAPMT spectra run from 530 up. However not all spectra should be set up at the same time since there is not enough memory. Uncomment only a sector or so at a time in mini.spec.

To start it up type

xpaw
--> carriage return
then you get a prompt
typing the spectrum number gives a display of the spectrum: ADC x axis channel # y axis. The mapping to tower is complicated (see Steve's spread sheet.) Other useful commands

403 ; default display of spectrum
404(0:500,) ; shows only the lower 500 x channels of the spectrum
opt logz ; sets the log scale to log
opt linz ; sets it back to linear works for x and y too
405 box ; boxes rather that dots
404 col ; color z scale
sliceit ; movie of all channels
3000+ch+1 ; display one of the slices by itself

to make a post script plot file (lots of people make macros for this. see ./kumacs)
fort/file 66 'name'.ps ;66 is a unit number. Almost any # works.
graphics/meta 66 -111 ;-111 means ps other numbers can give other file types
hi/pl 'histo' ;make the plot as you did on the screen
close 66 ;closes the plot file
