are taken from the Offline Condition DataBase (OCDB) (which is itself fakely filled
using the WritePedestals() method of AliMUONCDB class
-So first generate a valid pedestal CDB entry by using the AliMUONCDB class
+So first generate a valid pedestal CDB entry by using the AliMUONCDB class. There's one
+ little trick : you should first point to the "default" OCDB (local://$ALICE_ROOT/OCDB) in
+ order to get the mapping loaded, then only you can play with another OCDB.
+ Or, alternatively, you can put the mapping stuff in the test OCDB, like this :
+
+<pre>
+root[] AliMpDDLStore::ReadData(); // read mapping from ASCII files
+root[] const char* cdbpath="local://$ALICE_ROOT/OCDB/SHUTTLE/TestShuttle/TestCDB"; // where to put the CDB
+root[] AliCDBManager::Instance()->SetDefaultStorage(cdbpath);
+root[] AliMpCDB::WriteMpSegmentation();
+root[] AliMpCDB::WriteDDLStore();
+</pre>
+If you've not put the mapping in the test database, then you must start with the default OCDB, load the mapping, and then only switch to the
+ test database :
+
<pre>
-root[] const char* cdbpath="local://$ALICE_ROOT/SHUTTLE/TestShuttle/TestCDB"; // where to put the CDB
+root[] AliCDBManager::Instance()->SetDefaultStorage("local://$ALICE_ROOT/OCDB"); // only if you've not put the mapping in test OCDB
+root[] AliCDBManager::Instance()->SetRun(0); // only if you've not put the mapping in test OCDB
+root[] AliMpCDB::LoadDDLStore(); // only if you've not put the mapping in test OCDB
+// below are lines to be executed whatever you did with the mapping...
+root[] const char* cdbpath="local://$ALICE_ROOT/OCDB/SHUTTLE/TestShuttle/TestCDB"; // where to put the CDB
root[] AliMUONCDB cdb(cdbpath)
root[] Bool_t defaultValues = kFALSE; // to generate random values instead of plain zeros...
root[] Int_t startRun = 80;
I-AliMUONCDB::MakePedestalStore: 16828 Manus and 1064008 channels.
I-AliMUONCDB::WritePedestals: Ngenerated = 1064008
I-AliCDBManager::Init: AliEn classes enabled in Root. AliCDBGrid factory registered.
-I-AliCDBManager::SetDefaultStorage: Setting Default storage to: local://$ALICE_ROOT/SHUTTLE/TestShuttle/TestCDB
+I-AliCDBManager::SetDefaultStorage: Setting Default storage to: local://$ALICE_ROOT/OCDB/SHUTTLE/TestShuttle/TestCDB

</pre>
Usage (from the Root prompt) :
<pre>
+AliMpCDB::LoadDDLStore2(); // load mapping from "default" OCDB=local://$ALICE_ROOT/OCDB
AliCDBManager::Instance()->SetDefaultStorage(cdbpath); // so you will read
// back pedestals values generated in the previous step
const char* dateFileName = "raw.date"; // base filename for the output
// FIXME : instructions below should be replaced with usage of MUONTRKda
//
-The raw.date.LDC* files are then processed using the makeped online program
-(currently found, pending an agreement on where to put online programs under cvs,
- under /afs/cern.ch/user/a/abaldiss/public/v16; Please contact Alberto to check
- it's the latest version) which outputs manus-*.ped ASCII files (one per LDC) :
+The raw.date.LDC* files are then processed using the DA online program (which is not built by default, but must be made
+ explicitely using make daqDA-MCH from $ALICE_ROOT, and requires some DATE setup..., see \ref READMEmchda.txt )
<pre>
- makeped -f raw.date.LCDi -a LDCi.ped (i=0,1,2,3)
+ MUONTRKda.exe -f raw.date.LCDi -a LDCi.ped (i=0,1,2,3)
(repeat for each LDC)

+\section shuttle_s7 Trigger DCS
+
+HV and currents DCS values are created in CreateDCSAliasMap() of TestMUONPreprocessor.C
+As done in Tracker HV, you might want to modify this function to create a given set of
+error conditions in order to test whether the TriggerDCSSubprocessor is reacting
+properly to those errors.
+
+COMMENT: the trigger subprocessor requires trigger .dat files to be present.
+In order to test only the DCS values when the remaining trigger files are not present,
+a workaround is put in the TestMUONPreprocessor.C which creates fake date files.
+This results in some "ERROR" flags appearing in the LOG file (for masks and LUT),
+which are absolutely expected.
+The fake date files are automatically removed at the end of the macro.
+
+
+This chapter is defined in the READMEshuttle.txt file.
