Tags

First tag including support for PS fast counter readouts.
Various speed up implemented
compatible with FW version 3-01:
https://udtc-ot-firmware.web.cern.ch/?dir=v3-01

Added LpGBT eye scan for downlink and improved VTRx+ output light yield scan
Compatible with FW tag v3-00

Preliminary tag for OT module pre-production
Added fullTest and quickTest for PS and 2S modules
Compatible with FW tag v3-00

IT updates:
- Added check on e-fuse code for every chip (CROC)
 --> added field eFuseCode in XML file
- Fixed bug in CROC initialisation sequence (no need to run DataIntegrity twice at power up)

OT updates:
 - Electric Chain Validation completed for both PS and 2S

Updates for IT:
 - New thradj algorithm: the golden-ratio algorithm runs on one chip at a time per module (all modules in parallel)
 - DoDataIntegrity now also works for RD53A
 - DoDataIntegrity now also with option 3 masks at Core level
 - LpGBT I2C-slave chips handled as if they were LpGBT registers
 - Silent Running in thradj and RD53Interface

Last tag before support for 12 module readout, use with FW tag v2-02:
https://udtc-ot-firmware.web.cern.ch/?dir=v2-02

IT updates:
- Bit Error Rate test now runs on all chips in parallel
- Added support for CROCv2
- Added detection of truncation mechanisms: due to maximum number of hits reached per core and due to readout timeout
- Fixed bug in reading monitored data with LpGBT ADC
- Fixed bug in plotting monitored data measured with LpGBT
- Successfully tested DataIntegrity with TEPX (2 optical groups, each with 1 LpGBT --> 1 hybrid --> 3 chips)
- Successfully tested initialisation of opto-hybrids without systematic errors

OT updates
- Measure occupancy working for 2S and PS
- Added injection scan occupancy measurement
- Added verification of all cluster lines from SSA to MPA
- Added plots for stub package alignment procedure
- Added preliminary implementation of ECV between MPA and CIC

First tag supporting Alma9 only
Last tag before adding support for multi module stub readout.
OT firmare tag: v2-01

Last Tag supporting Centos 7 and Alma 8

IT update:
- Split ROOT file by hybrid option in xml
- Added masked pixels plot in PixelAlive / Noise
- Added Noise vs Thr plot in SCurve
- Better Monitoring of readout chip variables (currents, voltages, temperatures)
- Added DoDataIntegrity option 2, pixel-by-pixel
- Updated README.md file
- Increased number of bits for channel/lane up
- Moved some calibration actions up to RD53CalibBase class
- Added enable bit for ROCs

OT update
- Major improvements on module alignment procedures to include plots for module QA and debugging

Fixed bug in FileParser: was not entering to apply Global Settings

- Bug fix in thradj and threqu related to file output names (the bug was present only in v4-20)
- Added Metadata counting the total number packets which were re-sent
- Added option in XML file to abort if all requested data lanes are not `up`

- fixed bug in thradj: now all chips in a module are tuned independently
- added metadata to root files: a boolean that checks if all requested lanes are up, and an integer that counts the number of corrupted packets

- Last tag before OT review of the configuration procedures

- Fixed bug in RD53-LpGBT class: now able to properly map all possible SFP connector positions in FMC
- More precise trigger duration estimation
- Removed dependencies from ROOT - json library when compiling as “HERD”
- Run formatAll

- Put back Cmd FIFO reset in FW interface to avoid "Cmd FIFO errors"
- Larger log files: 16 Mb
- Fixed bug in optical readout in using different SFP connectors

- partial fix to FIFO error issue (lesser errors, no stuck FIFO)
- multiple averaged measurements of observables in monitoring now working properly
- more robust threshold adjustment with "golden section algorithm"

New features:

Multi-master
More robust thradj
Means for FW v4.07
Added skip initialisation sequence to CMSITminiDAQ
Small change in RD53Event: some fields changed meaning
Added a new user friendly way to pick up readout chip register values from txt file: see documentation pages 9 and 10

Container cannot be accessed by index anymore

Last tag in which containers can be accessed using the index

IT updates:
1. fixed bugs in latency scans in 4.12
2. working x-talk scans
3. possibility to configure data stream fields at runtime with xml file
