In basic form, here's the list of tasks.
1. From the initial LPA runs, determine whether there are any serious problems with zero suppression or CAL triggering.
The useful datasets are
a. the runs we start via PROC requests on L+15. They'll be conSciOps_noCal, calibOps, and nomSciOps
b. the short 5-min runs of all LPA configs on L+16, including all of the fleCalib*, fheCalib*, and lacCalib* configs.
c. the longer calibOps and conSciOps_noCal runs on L+16.
...
From those runs, we need to absolutely ASAP whether there are any problems with LAC, FLE, or FHE. We at the MOC will need to know whether problems exist within hours after the data come out of the pipeline, if we're to have any chance to fix them before the FLE and FHE timing-in data are acquired. Sorry about that.
Go to the GLAST Data Quality Monitoring pages http://glast-ground.slac.stanford.edu/DataQualityMonitoring/.
Select an appropriate time interval, and click on the run ID.
Click on the "Expert" mode in the upper right corner of the left-hand panel. When you're in "Expert" mode, that word will show "Shifter", and when you're in "Shifter mode, that word will show "Expert", just to be confusing.
To find the number of trigger requests per tower in this run or sum of runs, click on
Root > Digi > GEM > TriggerVectors > CAL_HI map(tower)
Root > Digi > GEM > TriggerVectors > CAL_LO map(tower)
To find the distribution of CAL hit occupancy, click on
Root > Digi > CAL > Num. logs hit (LAT)
Root > Digi > CAL > Num. logs hit (tower)
2. From the initial LPA runs, "measure" the LAC, FLE, and FHE thresholds.
The useful datasets are a, b, and c above plus
d. the calibOps runs on L+18
e. the First Light Image runs of nomSciOps on L+19 to L+22.
...
Again, please don't wait until datasets d and e are acquired to start.
3. From the LAC, FLE, and FHE calibration data acquired on L+23 and L+24, measure the LAC, FLE, and FHE threshold DAC calibration curves.
Here the useful datasets are the lacCalib*, fleCalib*, and fheCalib* acquisitions. Many of you have contributed to the analysis code for these data.
