Description
-----------
Bank Number: Crate number
Contains a 32 bit status of each channel in the crate. This bank together with
DQCR replaces the CRON/VTHR/VRLY banks.
Data Words
----------
Fixed length Database Header. See titles_dbhdr.html
Data types: B(bit), I, F, D(double), H(hollerith 4 char)
Word Type Mnemonic Description
KDQCH_
1..10 I Header. Currently unused (all words zero)
11 I TABLE Start of channel status table. For channel i where:-
i = 32*card + channel
status stored in word KDQCH_TABLE + i
The structure of the channel status word is as follows, unused bits are all
zero.
Bit Mnemonic Description
KDQCH_B_
0 PMT_CABLE PMT cable in(0), out or unknown tube type (1)
1 PMTIC_RESISTOR PMTIC channel resistor present(0), not present(1)
NB SHaRC has no way of knowing if the resistor on
particular channel has been cut and hence always
assumes present.
2 SEQUENCER Channel sequencer enabled(0), disabled(1)
3 100NS 100ns trigger enabled(0), disabled(1)
4 20NS 20ns trigger enabled(0), disabled(1)
5 75OHM 75 Ohm terminator OK (0), blown (1)
6 QINJ Qinj OK (0), malfunctioning i.e. Large/Small/Bad (1)
7 N100 100ns trigger OK (0), dead (1)
8 N20 20ns trigger OK (0), dead (1)
9 NOT_OP operational (0), not operational (1)
10 BAD logical OR of bits 0-9
16 VTHR V threshold (8 bits)
24 VTHR_ZERO V threshold zero (8 bits)
