Hello the DRS4 team,
I and some of my colleagues are using DRS4 evaluation boards (ver. 3) for the R&D of the Cherenkov Telescope Array project. During
our PMT measurements, we have encountered a problem which is probably related to USB connection. In fact, I cannot reproduce this
problem with my Linux virtual machine (Scientific Linux 5 64 bit), but other colleagues from three different universities in Japan
reported the same problem with their real machines.
=== Short Summary ===
DRSBoard::SetFrequency occasionally stops
=== Environment ===
- drs-3.0.0
- Scientific Linux 5.5 (32 bit)
- lib-usb-devel-0.1.12-5.1.i386
=== Steps to Reproduce the Problem ===
1. Compile the attached file drs_simple.cpp with drs-3.0.0
2. Repeat the following command several times from a terminal
$ drs_simple -0.05 1000 ./outputfilename.dat true 2.
3. The above command may stop. In that case, you need to kill the command by Ctrl-C.
=== Comments ===
- Once the command stops, we cannot run the above command properly.
- If we unplug and plug the USB cable again, the command can be executed again.
- It seems that the program stops inside DRSBoard::SetFrequency
I would very appreciate it if you could give me any advise. If you need further information, please let me know.
