DPP-PSD Control Software
The DT730 and DT5725 can be equipped (on payment) with a special DPP-PSD firmware.
DPP-PSD Control Software
is a software interface for configuration, acquisition, data plotting to be used with the
digitizers who can run the DPP-PSD special firmware. It allows the user to set the parameters for the acquisition, to
configure the DPP, to perform the data readout, the histogram collection and the spectrum or waveform plotting and
saving. The program doesn’t feature data analysis, but can be easily interfaced to software tools for offline analysis.
DPP-PSD Control Software is available both for Windows and Linux platforms.
The program relies on the CAENDigitizer, CAENComm and CAENVMELib libraries (see §
10
). Third-party Java SE6 (or
later) needs to be installed.
Note:
Windows version of DPP-PSD Control Software is stand-alone (the required libraries are installed locally with the
program; only the communication driver must be installed apart by the user), while the version for Linux needs the
required libraries to be already installed apart.
