This section provides the CALICE's DAQ V2 software specifications.


What software have to provide:

  • Electronic test bench:
    We use Python to provide USB, serial and Ethernet links. Standard object introspection python module is used to develop tests.
  • Transport layer between DIF Hardware and XDAQ:
    We provide a library that allow to load configuration from database and to access DIF read-out data from buffers, one buffer by DIF.
  • Only one channel:
    We only have one channel to access the hardware, where we usually have 2, one for slow control and one for acquisition.
