The monitoring translator is intended for Multi-calib cycle experiments. It uses MPI to translate different calib cycles in parallel. Typically users will filter the large detectors and write smaller summary information in order to seed up translation for monitoring purposes.

Calibrations

The default behavior for the Translator is to calibrate just cspad2x2 or Full cspad. To obtain the calibrations for other area detectors, as well as to use more recent calibration code, see Translating the Detector Interface.

Running by Hand

You can also run the translator by hand. You run it as you would any other psana module. Either through psana command line options or by writing a psana configuration file.  The module is Translator.H5Output. When using the psana command line interface to run the module, the only option that is required to give to the Translator is the name of the output file.  This must be a fully qualified filename, with the output directory.  For example:
