      DAQ, Merger and Tape server all still running ok
      Good events statistics (see attachment 3)

      Orientation of RS-232 cards was wrong. They have now been corrected will enable logging then do a halt and
go on the daq.
      Power supply also moved onto AIDA circuit.

11:00 Current file R15_333.
      
11:04 halt and go performed
      24 Log files produced on Rasp Pi console monitor.

The three attachments show the orientation of the console cable pcb relative to the FEE64 connectors.

The first with the other cables and the other two with no cables for clarity of position.

Can you let me know when you power-cycled the FEEs please ? Or maybe just do a stop/go.
If there is nothing to log from the consoles then the Pi won't have made a log file. 
The software opens and closes the log file each time a line of text comes in from the FEE64.

See https://elog.ph.ed.ac.uk/AIDA/555

Date files May2017/R1_0 to May2017/R_79 are an extended (c. 3.8 day) background run with
BNC PB-4 Pulser OFF and and a relatively high slow comparator threshold 0x64 to reduce
data volume.

Attachment 1 - DSSSD#1-6 m_p versus m_n 

Attachment 2 - DSSSD#1-6 x versus y hit patterns

Attachment 3 - DSSSD#1-6 E_p versus E_n (dispersion ~20-23keV/channel)

Attachment 4 - DSSSD#1-6 E_p versus E_n (with tags)

Attachment 5 - 2D contour levels & colours for all 2D spectra above

Attachment 6 - MIDASsort subroutine

Attachment 7 - MIDASsort namelist I/O variables

Attachments 8-10 - ADC offset calculation logs etc

Attachment 11 - spectrum titles

MIDASsort calculates channel and ADC data as follows

       ch = channel + ( module - 1 ) * 64 + ( range * 2048 )
       adc_data = INT( RSHIFT( ABS( adc_data - 32768 ), 3 ) - offset(ch) + 0.5 )

       where

       channel = FEE channel # (0-63)
       module = FEE module # (1-24)
       range = LEC or HEC (LEC = 0, HEC = 1)

ADC offsets were calculated using the pulser walkthrough data of files May2017/R4
and command

cd ~/td/calibration
offsets /homes/npg/Spectra/R4 100 1400 15 10

where the peakfind peak search parameters are limits 100-1400 channels, fwhm=15 channels and acceptance=10%

Probably ~10% of ADC offsets need manual checking/adjustment

The 2D spectra (attachments 1-4) were produced for events with

multiplicities 0 < m_p < 8 *and* 0 < m_n < 8
all x-y combinations incremented

no clustering, gain matching or software thresholds

All DSSSDs show Uranium 4n+2 decay sequence background spectra from the intrinsic activity of the DSSSDs
and airborne decay products (e.g. 222Rn). Not clear why statistics are higher for DSSSD#1 cf. DSSSD#2-6.
One possibility is the activity of the aluminized Mylar window just upstream of DSSSD#1? Surrounding air
and Al snout would presumably affect DSSSD#1 and #6 about the same.

Pulser walkthroughs R2 & R3 should be ignored as + polarity test input
had significantly lower amplitude (x2 oor more) than - polarity test input.
The + polarity test input is derived from tee'd output from BNC PB-4 and
EG&G Ortec 433 Sum & Invert - physically moving the cabling and connectors
between these two points changed tail pulse amplitude or produced a transient
(non-tail) pulse with duration ~ 100ns. Not clear which cable or connector
is the issue (all cables and connectors were individually replaced) but output
amplitude currently correct so will proceed.
