	name of the collection, where TrackerPulse are stored
int	_outputIsTransient
	set the status which is set to the transient flag of the output collection it is an int instead of a boolean, because the processor parameter cannot be a boolean
int	_forceSpectrumSave
	if not 0 the ADC spectrum will be saved for all pulses instead of only for pulses with quality !=0 it is an int instead of a boolean, bcause the processor parameter cannot be a boolean

Detailed Description

Convert zero-suppressed ADC raw data to pulses.

Runs on all channels without applying an additional threshold, no pedestal information needed. No pre- and afterpulses are considered as the threshold is 0, so everything that is there is put into the pulse.

Input - Prerequisites

• Collection of zero suppressed TrackerData
• The correct readoutfrequency set in the GEAR TPCParameters

Output

Collection of TrackerPulses //Collection of TrackerData which belong to a pulse

Parameters

InputCollectionName	name of the input TrackerData collection
OutputTrackerPulseCollectionName	name of the output TrackerPulse collection
//	OutputTrackerDataCollectionName name of the output TrackerData collection
ForceSpectrumSave	if not 0 the ADC spectrum will be stored for all pulses
