	give 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

Detailed Description

Reads TimePix raw data: matrix of 256 x 256 values stored in a .dat file
Writes data to TrackerRawDataCollection named TimePixRawData Currelty only work for one chip.

Input - Prerequisites

TimePix data files.

Output

• A runheader
• Events with TimePixRawData (lcio::TrackerRawData)
• First event contains TimePixModeMap collection

Parameters

FileListName

Text file with list of input TimePix files

Attention

{TimePix file names must be absolute pathes!}

Parameters

OutputCollectionName	Name of the output collection, defaut TimePixRawData
ModeMapCollectionName	Name of the output mode map collection, default TimePixMap
DetectorName	Detector name for run header, default "TPC"
Description	Data descripton for run header, default "no description given"
SubDetectorName	Sub-detector name for run header, default "TimePix"
ChipID	Interer ID number of the chip (lcio::TrackerRawData::CellID0), should be 0 as it's only one chip in the current version
Mode	Operation mode of the chip: TOT, TIME, MM1 (mixed mode with CellID0 = TIME), MM2 (mixed mode with CellID0 = TOT)
NRow	Number of rows on the chip, default 256
NColumn	Number of columns on the chip, default 256
MaxRecordNumber	Maximum number of events 100000
SetOutputTransient	If not 0 the output collection is set transient
