How to select data you read using DataMenu




How to select data you read using DataMenu

There are different types of data you may select with DataMenu:      

ReadSiData         - Read Silicon data - strips, clusters, hits 
ReadMuData         - Read Muon data - CMP,CMU, etc. hits, stubs 
ReadXftData        - Read Xft data - hits and tracks 
ReadCalData        - Read calorimeter data - for LEGO displays 
ReadPlugData       - Read plug data - for PLUG and PPR displays 
ReadDecayTreeData  - Read mc data for MC(DecayTree) Display 
ReadAllData        - Read All data 

It means that if there are any Silicon Data accessible in the event, 
you'll read it, otherwise not.
It's made as a one more level to protect you from any crashes. 
GUI implemented for the DataMenu:


One should click on the Panel button on the CDF ED Manager and get ED Control Panel. Then go to the ReadData subsection and use your left mouse button to set what data you want to read.

Here is an non-GUI example of a work with this DataMenu:

AC++> talk evd

evd> DataMenu 

evd/DataMenu> show
Current value of items on the "DataMenu" menu:
            Value of ReadSiData for module evd is false
            Value of ReadMuData for module evd is false
            Value of ReadXftData for module evd is false
            Value of ReadCalData for module evd is false
            Value of ReadPlugData for module evd is false
            Value of ReadDecayTreeData for module evd is false
            Value of ReadAllData for module evd is false


evd/DataMenu> ReadAllData set true

evd/DataMenu> exit

evd> exit

AC++> 

So we have set here ReadAllData = true, it means you'll read all 
data accessible.

Event Display is constantly updated, so please be attentvive: 
there could be new parameters in the talk-to's, new options.
