Detector 'aliases' can be specified for any sensitive detector for which the user either needs to store more than one type of hit or wants to define additional detector entries.

  +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
  | CALL GSDETA (IUSET,IUDET,IUALI,NWHI,NWDI,IALI*) |
  +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
                                  

Defines an alias IUALI for detector IUDET of set IUSET. Enters it in the JSET structure as an additional detector in the corresponding set, at the position IALI. Copies to the link position IALI the GSDET parameter bank from the original detector IUDET, with empty links to the GSDETH, GSDETD and GSDETU parameter banks. The user can therefore call these three routines again with the arguments appropriate to the detector IUALI. Several aliases can be defined for the same detector through as many calls to GSDETA.

IUSET

user set identifier (4 characters)

IUDET

user detector identifier (4 characters),name of an existing volume

IUALI

user alias identifier (4 characters)

NWHI

number of words for the primary allocation of HITS banks

NWDI

number of words for the primary allocation of DIGI banks when first allocation not sufficient

IALI

position of alias in bank JS=LQ(JSET-ISET)
