Occasionally one finds events which cannot be properly displayed and SCREW UP the session. Leon found a problem in AcdReconFiller (2006/07/13) which caused many of those problems (see corresponding discussion in the beam test mailing list). This is fixed in HepRepSvc v0r18p3. Yet it seems that some large events still have problems to be displayed... There are two "dirty" ways of avoiding the problem:
- Not reading the mc.root file; this seems to prevent the problem to happen.
- Skip those "special" events that cause the problem in a particular run. This can be done if the events are selected by typing the event number in the event number display of FRED (upper part pf of panel) instead of scanning them with the "play" button.

I think that's all what you need to know to inspect the data with FRED... at least that is all I know about displaying data with FRED. Hope that is useful. Do not hesitate in contacting me if there are things which are not clear or you have questions about this stuff (dpaneque@slac.stanford.edu).
