scriptcalb - a command line script launcher


scriptcalb with tcl scripts can be used instead of compiled C commands for most of the basic operations, like reseting a CALB, board testing the FIFOs and so on.

In this page, you can find the syntax of the command and a short script writing guide.


scriptcalb syntax

The syntax of the command is very simple:

scriptcalb chain_nr crate_nr slot_nr scriptname
The actual script name is:
$CALBTCL/scripts/scriptname.calb.tcl


Script description

A script should contain only two variable definitions:
calb_user_description
This variable should contain a detailed description of the script.
calb_user_command
This variable should contain the script commands.

The following variables are defined:

calb_user_args
command line parameters
chain_nr , crate_nr , slot_nr
chain, crate and slot number
calbcid
CALB id
An example:
set calb_user_description {\
This command do:
- enable acquisition
- enable zero supression
}

set calb_user_command {
 calb set acqen $calbcid 1
 calb set zsen $calbcid 1
}
