flxlibs - FELIX card software and utilities
Appfwk DAQModules, utilities, and scripts for the FELIX readout card.
Building
For the dependencies, you need the felix external package that ships a build of a partial set of the ATLAS FELIX Software suite. You'll want to use a work area created using daq-buildtools from the dunedaq-v2.4.0 DAQ Suite or later, otherwise this package won't be in your area's dbt-settings file.
Disclaimer
The Initial setup of FELIX page doesn't mean to be a replacement for the official FELIX User Manual. For a much more detailed documentation, always refer to that appropriate RegisterMap version and device's user manual, that are found under the official FELIX Project Webpage.
Configure the FELIX card
Please ensure the following:
-
For the physical setup, please refer to the Initial setup of FELIX.
-
For the card configuration, one needs compatible firmware and FELIX configuration sets. The list is under FELIX Assets
-
Configure the FELIX card, as explained in the Configure the FELIX card short manual.
Examples
After successfully building the package, you can try passing the readout package's felixreadout-commands.json to daq_application. I.e., assuming you've cloned readout into your source area, launch a readout emulation via:
daq_application -n pippo -c stdin://sourcecode/readout/test/felixreadout-commands.json
Then start typing commands as usual.
