After successful installation, all scripts are located in the ~operator/pplots/ directory. The following expert-only options exist:
Server
The evpServer can be started with the following options by editing EvpPlotServer.C:
| -nogui | no graphical user interface will be opened |
| -disabled | if GUI is present, user interaction is disabled |
| -live | immediately switch to live mode after start-up |
| -start | start requesting data immediately after start-up |
| -end | launch end-of-run-action, when end of run is detected (prints all active panels into a pdf file and saves to data base) |
| -path <pathname> | switch off live mode and read data from <pathname> |
| -map <mapfilename> | do not write to default memory mapped file, write to <mapfilename> |
| -nocheck | do not check for other running instances of evpServer |
| -nevents <number> | process only <number> events for each run |
| -quit | quit at the end of the run |
| -h | print list off command line options |
Presenter
When the Presenter is started without any additional arguments, the live mode will read from the default memory mapped file.
Edit EvpPlotServer.C (and uncomment the presenter option) and specify a pathname to the memory map file, e.g. test.map, which will be used instead of the default memory mapped file name.
Example: If you are developing code and want to run the Server and Presenter without interfering with the experiment monitoring, you would specify a map file for the server and have the presenter read that map file.
