HVchannel1469

class HVchannel1469 : public HVchannel

Class that corresponds to a PHENIX HV channel for a module of type 1469

Inheritance:

Public Methods
HVbulkSupply* getBulkSupply(): Returns a pointer to the bulk supply that controls this channel
bool hasBulkSupply(): Returns true if it has a bulk supply
HVchannel1469( int channelNum, const char *Name, const char *Type, HVmodule *pMyModule = NULL ): Constructor for a named channel of a given type
void setBulkSupply( HVbulkSupply *pSupply ): Establishes the control between a bulk supply and the channel (NOTE: this is not done in the ctor )

Documentation

Class that corresponds to a PHENIX HV channel for a module of type 1469. These modules have several bulk supplies that drive a set of channels. Not every operation can be executed on the individual channel, eg the bulk supply has one demandVoltage which then puts every channel at this voltage. This is implemented through inheritance, where the member function setDemandVoltage is a virtual function of the object HVchannel and redifined in HVchannel1469 to return hvcModuleHasNoSuchFunction.
