New Feature: Plotting Time Series HV Plots from DCS Monitoring Files

[bdorney]

Description

Takes TFiles produced by tools provided:

https://github.com/cms-gem-daq-project/gem_ops/pull/6

And prepares summary plots.

Types of changes

• [ ] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
• [x] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
• [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)

Motivation and Context

It's difficult to go through the 904 DCS GUI to scroll back in time to find what happened in a particular HV event. This tool will make helpful summary plots that can be used for understanding HV events on QC8 (and later P5).

How Has This Been Tested?

Help menu:

% plotTimeSeriesHV.py -h
usage: plotTimeSeriesHV.py [-h] (-a | -t | -b) [-d] [-o OUTFILENAME] [-u]
                           inputfile row column

Arguments to supply to plotTimeSeriesHV.py

positional arguments:
  inputfile             TFile containing DCS output files
  row                   Row of QC8 stand
  column                Column of QC8 stand

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -a, --allLayers       Both stand layers
  -t, --top             Stand Layer is TOP
  -b, --bot             Stand Layer is BOT
  -d, --debug           Prints additional debugging info
  -o OUTFILENAME, --outfilename OUTFILENAME
                        output name of TFile
  -u, --update          Instead of overwriting a pre-existing output file,
                        adding this option will simply update that file

Example Call

plotTimeSeriesHV.py -a QC8_HV_monitor_UTC_start_2019-06-12_21-34-32_end_2019-06-12_21-44-32.root 1 2
