PSOCAKE Psockae is a graphical user interface for viewing Area Detector images (CsPad, pnCCD, Opal etc). It can be used to tune peak finding parameters.

Getting started:

If you have a terminal open, just type:

>> psocake

This will start the psocake application installed on psana machines. You can also choose to input experiment variable:

>> psocake -e cxic0415 -r 14 -d DscCsPad -n 5697

This will start up psocake with experiment cxic0415, run 14, front CsPad and event number 5697.

To get the latest version of psocake, download the source code like this:

>> newrel ana-current ana-psocake

>> cd ana-psocake

>> kinit

>> sit_setup

>> addpkg psocake HEAD

>> scons

>> cd psocake/src

...
