if yes: check if hit is "clean", i.e. there was no other signal within pileupWindow
N O T E: this function only checks the pre-pileup for "TOF" and "Decay" hits, i.e.
         BC and e+ hits. The pre-pileup for the master channels is implicitly done
         in the loop over the TDC output buffer (currently done in frontend_loop())
         where it is required that two starts of master channel events are separated
         by at least diffTimeSlowMuon or diffTimeFastMuon (which is 10musec at the moment).

frontend_loop() is called whenever the frontend is idle or once between every event if the variable frontend_call_loop = true  in the frontend code. This means that the frontend has to be re-compiled if one wants to use frontend_loop().


It performs the readout of the V1190 TDC and builds the events to be sent in read_trigger_event();


A 10kHz clock is used to check if hits belong to one TDC cycle of 100musec. Events may look like


1-1-1-4-1-1 = clock-clock-clock-TD-clock-clock –> no valid events 1-4-4-1-1 = clock-TD-TD-clock-clock –> no valid event 1-26-27-30-29-28-31-1 = clock-M2F-M2R-Y1-X2-X1-Y2 –> no valid event, TD missing 4-26-27-28-29-30-31-1 –> valid event 4-4-26-27-28-29-30-31-1 –> valid event 4-26-27-28-29-30-31-26-27-28-29-30-31-4 –> valid event, pileup times are sent with data buffer


Read complete TDC output buffer of 32k events. At low rates a VME bus error (return code = 0x211) indicates the end of data. This stops reading data from the TDC. At high rates (MHz) this does not work anymore since there are always data present in the output buffer. In this case a TDC TDC error may occur (bit 29 is set) that can be used to tag the start of new data.
