Add script to create VFAT configuration file from scan results

Antonello Pellecchia requested to merge feature/create-vfat-config-file into main

Description

Add an option to gemos to create VFAT configuration files. The command takes as input a folder with a well-known file structure* and produces as output a folder with the same file structure and updated parameters.

In the absence of an input file, a default configuration file can be used. This is typically used to bootstrap a new configuration based on the setup description.

The following parameters are currently supported:

  • The VFAT calibration parameters retrieved from the database
  • The results of the DAC scans
  • The thresholds based on the results of the S-bit rate scans analysis routine

Usage example:

gemos create-config vfat --default default.cfg -c calibration/fed0001-slot01.cfg -d dacScan/dac_Scans.cfg -t sBitRateScan/sbits_1.cfg -t sBitRateScan/sbits_2.cfg results/vfatConfig/
  • The files will be organized in subfolders named fed<xxxx>-slot<y>.

Related Issue

Closes #35 (closed).

How Has This Been Tested?

Tested with results of scans performed on the VFATs available in the lab on a GE2/1 setup as well as the GE1/1 integration setup chambers.
