Hi,Tonko
This afternoon Sergey and I try to fix the problem of tof online plot.
And we go to EVP_Reader/tofreader.h,In the structure of tof,we find the
element adc[48],tdc[48],a2d[32],sca[12].And we do to the tofreader.C,we
find the same thing.That's adc loop goes to 48 and tdc loop goes to 48.
In the real data,we have 132 channel adc and 120 channel tdc,and a2d[32]
and sca[12],because we add 72 tofr channel.
132 adc values are:
0-40=tofp, 41=ramp, 42-47=pvpdLR, 48-53=empty,
54-59=pvpdHR, then 60-131=tofr
120 tdc values are:
0-40=tofp, 41=empty, 42-47=pvpd, 48-119=tofr
Can you change 48 channel adc to 132 channel adc and
change 48 channel tdc to 120 channel tdc?
Thanka a lot!
