Basic features:

This package provides simulation tools like PISA. Since only two proccesses driving the interaction of charged particles with thin silicon layer (Moliere scattering and the Landau energy loss) are considered the algorith is faster.

Fexible geometry and event display allows to test a variety of configurations.

Real hit - track - vertex - displaced vertex reconstruction algorithm are implemented with prospect to take into account the influce of rezifual mag. field on tracking.

Source:

You have to ensure the presence of libPythia6.so and TMCParticle.h which are not a part of PHENIX ROOT distribution.
