122. ALICE Calibration Pulser 2020 Card Setup
ETHERNET
Die Ethernet Schnittstelle ist als „XPORT03“ der Firma Lantronix ausgeführt. Es handelt sich eigentlich um
einen UART zu Ethernet Konverter.
The “Calibration Pulser” Ethernet port is implemented as a UART to Ethernet converter named
“XPORT03” from Lantronix.
Die einfachste Möglichkeit mit dem „Kalibrierpulser“-System via Ethernet zu kommunizieren, ist die von
Lantronix breitgestellte „COM Port Redirection“- Software unter Windows 7/10 zu verwenden. Des
Weiteren besteht die Möglichkeit direkt über TCP/IP oder UDP mit dem System zu kommunizieren.
The simplest way to control the “Calibration Pulser”- system via Ethernet, is to install under Windows
7/10 the com-port redirection software from Lantronix. It is also possible to reach the system direct over
TCP/IP or UDP protocol.
Für die Inbetriebnahme und Konfiguration des Ethernet Adapters (XPORT) benutzen sie bitte den
Lantronix XPORT USER Guide!
To configure the Ethernet port please use the “Lantronix” XPORT user guide to install.
USB
Die zweite Möglichkeit mit dem „Kalibrierpulser“- System zu kommunizieren ist es, die vorhandene USB
Schnittstelle zu benutzen. Es handelt sich um einen RS232 zu USB Konverter. In Windows 7/10 Systemen
wird er als virtueller COM-Port erkannt.
A second way to control the “Calibration Pulser”- system is to use the implemented USB interface. It is a
UART to USB converter. In Windows 7/10 systems, it is recognized as a virtual COM port.

15Program description
Das „Waveform Generator“- Programm wird verwendet, um für die „ALICE- Kalibrierpulser 2020“-
Karte(n) die benötigten „Kurvenformdaten“- Datei zu erstellen.
The „Waveform Generator“- program is used to calculate the needed waveform data file for the “ALICE-
Calibration Pulser 2020”- card.
Der „Kalibrierpulser“ erwartet als Kurvenform- Datenformat eine Binärdatei aus 1375 fortlaufenden
hexadezimalen 16bit Datenworten mit einer Bit-Weite zwischen 0 und 1023 (10bit).
The „Calibration Pulser” needs a binary file, filled with 1375 hexadecimal 16bit words with a wide
between 0 and 1023 (10 bit).
Im „Waveform Generator“- Programm existieren drei verschiede Kurvenform- Modi. Eine „Spline“-
Interpolation, eine „Lineare“- Interpolation und ein „Step“- Modus. Des Weiteren bietet das Programm
zwei verschieden Möglichkeiten erstellte Kurvenformen wieder einzulesen. Die erste Möglichkeit ist der
sogenannte „View Mode“, mittels der man die „Waveform“- Dateien (*.bin) wieder einlesen kann. Die
zweite Möglichkeit ist der „Edit- Mode“ mittels diesem die zuvor erstellten Cursordatei (*.csr) wieder
einlesen und bearbeiteten kann.
The „Waveform Generator“- program has three different modes. A “Spline”- interpolation, a “Linear”-
interpolation and a “Step”- mode. Furthermore, two different options exist to read in waveforms. A “View
Mode” who reads in a Waveform data file (*.bin ) and a “Edit Mode” who can read Cursor-Table file
(*.csr) for edit.
Die Kurvenform kann auf zwei verschieden Arten manipuliert werden. Einmal im „Waveform“- Graphen
mit der Hilfe von Fadenkreuze, oder mittels der Verwendung der „Cursor“- Tabelle.
The Waveform can be manipulated in two different ways. The first method is to use the cross hairs
directly in the “Waveform”- graph. The second method is to use the cursor table.
