Step 11: Write channel data to shared memory
For the initialization and running the pipeline, please refer step1
Access frame cache file by specifying frame_cache and instrument as in step2
Define a frame multiplexer(mux) to write channels into a frame as in step3
The only difference from (step3)writing to a frame file is use gds_lvshmsink instead of mkframecppfilesink
- The python scripts are available at git repository
> kagra-cal/Observation/Phase1/tutorials/shmo --help Usage: shmo [options] Options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --cache=cache Set the name of the LAL cache listing the frame files --gps-start-time=seconds Set the start time of the segment to analyze in GPS seconds. --gps-end-time=seconds Set the end time of the segment to analyze in GPS seconds. --ifo=name Name of the IFO (default= K1) --channel=name Set channel name(s) to extract (default= CAL- CS_PROC_C00_STRAIN_DQ,CAL-CS_PROC_MICH_DELTA_TM_DQ ,CAL-CS_PROC_MICH_RESIDUAL_DQ,CAL- CS_PROC_ERR_STRAIN_DQ,CAL-CS_PROC_CTRL_STRAIN_DQ,LSC- MICH1_IN1_DQ,LSC-MICH1_OUT_DQ) --format=format Set input channel(s) format (default= F64LE) --ch-rate=rate Set input channel data rate (default= 16384) --frame-duration=seconds Set the number of seconds for each frame. (Default = 4) --frame-size=bytes Approximate size in bytes of frame file images; used when writing to shared memory. (Default=500000) --shared-memory-partition=name Set the name of the shared memory partition to write to (default = K1). --buffer-mode=number Set the buffer mode for the lvshmsink element. (Default=2)
- Before running the script, make sure that shared memory with the same name is not running, and if so kill it with smkill
> smlist id name nBuf lBuf nTotal 32 K1 1 70000 32 > smkill K1 > smlist id name nBuf lBuf nTotal
- This is an example to extract channel data from a cache file, k1.cache and write to a shared memory

At the same time if you run another GstLAL script, shmi as in step 10 you will receive the C00 strain channel data
