Diagrams and Tools
- I recently used rather flaky shareware Mac program (ObjectPlant)
to make some diagrams
- DAQ -1 used Software through Pictures (StP) in the past
but now seem to be moving to Together/C++, Together/Java.
- I have now tried Together: its sophisticated but a bit slow.
Theres a free version which may be sufficient for our needs.
CERN and RAL have commercial licences (about £3k)
Hardware Configuration
- DAQ -1 schema has Modules and Crates. Can imagine DAL to produce
suitable top level Parts for HDMC and evolving DAQ system.
- Lower level Parts still from text files (eg partial Part
hierarchies?)
- Questions about Bus vs Crate in HDMC
- Not obvious how to save top level only HDMC Parts back to database.
But maybe this is not required...
- ...or perhaps use DAQ -1 database for complete HDMC configuration?
