Silicon Strips Detectors Start of Burst Record - provisional

For each record:

• 1 word Length (bytes) Total number of bytes, counting these
• 1 word Record Type (2)
• 1 word Run
• 1 word Date; yymmdd e.g. 950407 - 7th April 1995
• 1 word Time; hhmmss e.g. 152448 - 15:24:48
• 1 word Spill counter
• 5 words Status TBD
• 1 word Num Subdetectors The number of types of detector.
• N words N pointers Pointers to the detector types

For each detector type:

• 1 word Length (bytes) Total number of bytes, counting these
• 1 word Dectector Type Detector Type; telescope, ADAM etc..
• 2 word Status TBD.
• 1 word Num modules The number of modules present
• N word N pointers Pointers to the modules

For each module:

• 1 word Length (bytes) Total number of bytes, counting these
• ? words Module data Module data, as required, including status

Thus, if we see the data as a FORTRAN common block, it could look like the following:

   DATA(1)  = 480             ! total length, bytes
   DATA(2)  = 2               ! SOB record
   DATA(3)  = 37              ! Run number
   DATA(4)  = 950413          ! Date
   DATA(5)  = 154442          ! Time
   DATA(6)  = 5               ! Spill counter
   DATA(7)  = 0               ! TBD
   DATA(8)  = 0               ! TBD
   DATA(9)  = 0               ! TBD
   DATA(10) = 0               ! TBD
   DATA(11) = 0               ! TBD
   DATA(12) = 1               ! only one subdetector.
   DATA(13) = 14              ! Starts at element 14..
   DATA(14) = 428             ! subdetector length, bytes
   DATA(15) = 2               ! Detector type=Telescope
   DATA(16) = 0               ! TBD
   DATA(17) = 0               ! TBD
   DATA(18) = 2               ! Number of modules..
   DATA(19) = 21              ! 1st Module pointer
   DATA(20) = 71              ! 2nd Module pointer
   DATA(21) = 200             ! 200 bytes in first module
   DATA(22) = data..
         ...
   DATA(70) = data..
   DATA(71) = 200             ! 200 bytes in second module
   DATA(72) = data..
         ...
   DATA(120) = data
