Tracking/off-line sort with tracMain/GEBSort
To get the tracking software (trackMain) and ROOT sorter (GEBSort) you can
mkdir whereYouWantToWork cd whereYouWantToWork svn checkout https://svn.anl.gov/repos/gs_analysis/GEBSort . make offline
This will make the GEBSort_nogeb program, which is the GEBSort ROOTsorter without the software to connet to the GEB tap (hence, make offline). This version of the code can read mode1 or mode 2 data and does not need a VxWorks license to be installed. The trackMain code will also be generated, the software to add tracked data to the mode 2 data steam (then also know ad mode 1 data).
Here is an example of how to track some data from gretina and sort it using GEBSort_nogeb to make spectra.
First the tracking:
rm GTDATA ln -s /home/tl/d6/GEBSort/GEBSort_testdata GTDATA ./trackMain track.chat GTDATA/mode2.gtd GTDATA/mode1.gtd > GTDATA/trackMain.log
here we ask the tracker to read the GTDATA/mode2.gtd data, add tracking information to the data stream and write the output to GTDATA/mode1.gtd. The parameters for the tracking are in the track.chat file, which might look like this
