BurstMon output

    BurtsMon uses DMT facilities to create output trends of 1 minute type. One of  trends represents current rate of clusters on time-frequency plane which passed selection cuts. For each waveform there is a trend showing current interferometer sensitity expressed as h₅₀ in ADC units. After taking into account calibration these channel will show sensitivity in strain.

   Trend channel names:  

• <channel name>_cluster_rate, e.g. H1:LSC-AS_Q_cluster_rate - cluster rate per second
• <channel name>_nvar  - noise RMS variability after whitening, shows short-time nonstationarity of noise
• <channel name>_<waveform name>, e.g. H1:LSC-AS_Q_sg235q9_h50 - h₅₀ for specific waveform in ADC units

    Additional suffix for trend file names may be set using option "-suffix" on command line or in configuration file. Waveform name may be set by using option "-name" in header of waveform file. If there is no name specified the file name containing waveform without leading path and trailing suffix will be used as waveform name.

    Output trend files are written to the directory specified in environment variable "DMTRENDOUT".
