== Loading Detector Selection Tables via CUS ==
There is a CUS procedure to upload a detector selection table to PACS (either
SPECTRO or PHOTO). Selection tables are stored in the CUS database as U-CAL files.

The script to read these U-CAL files is called PACS_Det_sel (see listing in Appendix A); its CUS usage is simply
{{{
    PACS_Det_Sel("PACSDetSel_4002")
}}}
to upload the table 4002 for instance.

The CUS line command :
{{{
cus -defcmds PACS_Det_Sel("PACSDetSel_4002")
}}}
can be used to list the TCs that will be uplinked to PACS.

U-CAL files representing detector selection tables are called PACSDetSel_xxx,
where xxx represents the detector selection number.

The CUS directory for U-CAL files is currently in
{{{
/home/cususer/pacs/cus/CALU
}}}
Existing DetSel tables are
{{{
CALU/PACSDetSel_100 CALU/PACSDetSel_4002 CALU/PACSDetSel_4006
CALU/PACSDetSel_2001 CALU/PACSDetSel_4003 CALU/PACSDetSel_4007
CALU/PACSDetSel_2300 CALU/PACSDetSel_4004 CALU/PACSDetSel_4008
CALU/PACSDetSel_4001 CALU/PACSDetSel_4005 CALU/PACSDetSel_4009
}}}
To import a U-CAL table into the CUS registry, use the following command line
directive:
{{{
pacs/cus> cus -f -uploadcal CALU/PACSDetSel_4002
}}}
for instance.

The CUS directory for U-CAL files is currently in

Existing DetSel tables are 

CALU/PACSDetSel_100   CALU/PACSDetSel_4002  CALU/PACSDetSel_4006

CALU/PACSDetSel_4001  CALU/PACSDetSel_4005  CALU/PACSDetSel_4009

To import a U-CAL table into the CUS registry, use the following command line directive: 

pacs/cus> cus -f -uploadcal CALU/PACSDetSel_4002

for instance.
