You may need to define the environmental variable STAR_REF
:
setenv STAR_REF /afs/rhic/star/starlib/ref
On deneb, in ~staronl/ana
, type trkStaf
to bring up
Staf
. You want to bring up a HIGZ window, so give a carriage
return to accept the window when you get the ``Workstation type'' query.
Then
exec init
to initialize.
The other defaults should work.
If you have trouble connecting to netfeed1, clear it: exit
Staf
, then
close netfeed1.
To take data,
exec go N
where N=number of events to analyze. If N=1, a detailed picture of
the event is produced. If N>1, various (faster) plots are displayed
every 10 events. Use cntl-C to exit go.kumac
at any time.
Next: Data Output Up: On-line Analysis Previous: Starting on-line analysis
Histograms are created by histos.kumac
and filled by
go.kumac
.
An output file of histograms is named with the date and time in its
title by default in init.kumac
. The files are written into
~staronl/ana/histos
. The file is updated every 50 events in
go.kumac
, and also when go.kumac
returns.
The present method creates one file for every Staf
session;
to create a new file requires exiting and restarting Staf
.
Up: On-line Analysis Previous: Histograms
All read events are written in raw form to
/home/deneb/star7/sys_test
for sector testing or
/home/deneb/star7/tpc_test
for data taken on the TPC.
Files created in this way will, in general, contain a subset of
the events written to tape.
