Error_code_word_-

The fourth word in BADD for each event is the error_code_word. Each bit of this word is uniquely assigned to an error bank. If a particular error bank is present in the event, the bit of the error_code_word assigned to that error bank will be set. If no error banks are present in the event, the error_code_word will be zero. The purpose of the error_code_word is to provide a way of knowing quickly whether an error bank is present in that event.

Error_code_word bits are assigned by the author. The following bits have been assigned so far:

o Bit 0 Error bank for drift chamber (bank name DCT) TDC data

o Bit 1 Error bank for drift chamber raw TDC data

o Bit 2 Error bank for drift chamber sorted TDC data

o Bit 3 Error bank for drift chamber ADC data

o Bit 4 Error bank for drift chamber CAMAC data

Please contact the author (SUZ@TRIUMFDC) to request error_code_word bits for new error banks. The assignments of the error_code_word bits (and bit-masks) are also contained in the FORTRAN include file 787SSP:ERROR_BANK_BITS.INC. An array containing the error bank names whose index corresponds to the bit assignments is also provided.
