## For Raspberry Pi installation
All required CAEN Libraries support ARM archetect, so installation of those would not be a problem.
THe libqt6charts6-dev should be replaced by qt6-chart-dev, and the elog need to be installed manually (or can be skipped)
`sudo apt install qt6-base-dev qt6-chart-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev`
I tested with a Raspberry Pi 5 with 8 GB. it works.

` QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -g`
## exclude some files from the auto-gen *.pro
# Auxillary programs
The following files must be excluded from the *.pro, as they are not related to the GUI
- DataGenerator.cpp
- DataReaderScript.cpp
- EventBuilder.cpp
- test.cpp
- test_indep.cpp
Those file can be compiled using
`make -f Makefile_test`
There is a folder Aux, this folder contains many auxillary programs, such as EventBuilder. User can `make` under the folder to compile the programs.
# Known Issues
* for PHA firmware, when the trigger rate changed, the Events per Agg need to be changed.
* Although the Events/Agg used the CAEN API to recalculate before ACQ start, for PHA firmware, when the trigger rate changed, the Events per Agg need to be changed.
* The Agg Organization, Event per Agg, Record Length are strongly correlated. Some settings are invalid and will cause the digitizer goes crazy.
* load digitizer setting would not load everything, only load the channel settings and some board settings.
* Sometimes, the buffer is not in time order, and make the trigger/Accept rate to be nagative. This is nothing to do with the program but the digitizer settings. Recommand reporgram the digitizer.
* for 1740 QDC, RecordLenght is board setting, but readout is indivuial group.
* FOr PHA, the trapezoid scaling and fine-gain register are calculated before ACQ start.
