SLIC takes .stdhep files as input. If you have .lhe files that you want to process (usually tridents or A' signal), it may be better to use an existing script for this step, or else contact Brad Bradley Yale for instructions (btu29@wildcats.unh.edu).

The following steps simulate readout, which defines things like trigger response and prescaling taken from a steering file.

Note: If using a detector with a fieldmap, then a symbolic link to the fieldmap directory must be made, if not done already (see previous section).

1) Before the actual readout, the events from SLIC output will first need to be spaced out to simulate pileup:

...

where ${hps-java} = /u/group/hps/hps_soft/hps-java/hps-distribution-3.4.1bin.jar

'hps-distribution-bin.jar' links to whichever jar in the 'hps-java' directory is most recent (this can of course be changed),

or whichever jar you want to use, and
${steering} = EngineeringRun2015TrigSingles1_Pass2.lcsim
or whichever customized readout steering file you want to use.

If you want to use your own steering file other than the release version for anything in the readout or recon steps, replace
"-r /org/hps/steering/recon/${steering}"
with
"-f /path/to/your/${steering}" without the '-r' flag.

The run number can also be replaced.
