Changeset 388 for trunk/MagicSoft/Simulation/Detector/Camera/camera.cxx

Timestamp:

05/11/00 14:57:27 (25 years ago)

Author:

Message:

The option to loop over several trigger configurations has been included.
Some non-sense with triggertime range has been solved.
Montecarlo information and ADC counts are saved in a root file.
There was a problem with the maximum number of phe that the program could analyse. Now there is not limit.
