4022 disabled pulse trigger. only TS1,TS2,TS3,TS6 enabled, PS3=PS6=15, PS1=5,PS2=12, 1.8uA beam. 5.7KHz
Conclusion: on He3 target, PS1=5 will have 1.8kHz/uA for TS#1, PS2=12 will have 1.4kHz/uA for TS#2.
We still need to determine PS for PS4 and PS5.
After analyze run 4022, I found that for PS3=15, TS#3 has 28Hz/2uA. For PS6=15, TS#6 has 8Hz/2uA. Scaling PS from
15 to 10, we got TS#3 rate as 450Hz/uA and TS#6 rate 130Hz/uA.

ToFix:
Jimmy reported that the level1 tree has bug that some variables (cer16) are still
keeping the value of previous event if there is no hit in current event. (run4015)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mistakes for runs from 3972 to 4066
1. The vmeDSC has positive pulse output if one follows the +|- label. NIM logic board expects
negative pulse inputs. Therefore our TS#1,TS#2 and TS#3 in run 3972-4066 are not what we designed.
TS#1 and TS#2 are logical "OR". TS#3 is complicated to express.
Mistakes for runs between 4023 and 4066:
1. TS#4 is actually triggered by SC_B due to cable wrongly shift by 1 pin.
On Jan 20 I tried to move TS#4(vmeDSC_ch12) and TS#5(vmeDSC_ch11) to vmeDSC_ch14 and vmeDSC_ch15.
But they are actually shifted by one pin location, which are vmeDSC_ch15 and vmeDSC_ch16.
Due to this mistake, trigger-bit 4 (0x1000) is actually triggered by SC_B (the SC behind shower),
Runs 4023-4066 are affected.

=========================================================
to do:
look into run 4055 for Shower_R and SC_A
Raise TS4 threshold to 700mV and take some runs.
For TS4-only run, please adjust PS to keep rate at 3kHz. (If PS is too high, raise the threshold to 800mV or 900mV or 1V).
Need dedicated runs for each of TS4,5,1,2,3, in that order, and ideally also one run with all triggers on.

=========================================================
A) What type of input pulse TI expects?
The TI we are using expects a positive differential pulse (meaning positive pulse on the + pin,
and simultaneously a negative pulse on the - pin).
The output of most level translator used in JLab can connect directly to TI, but not any logic unit output.
Its manual can be found here:
https://coda.jlab.org/drupal/system/files/pdfs/HardwareManual/TI/TI.pdf
B) can we tell readout to read FADC waveform even though it can not pass the given threshold?
JLab FADC250 can force all channels to be readout even with a threshold still specified.
The flag/mask, FADC250_TET_IGNORE_MASK, tells the readout whether or not to use the threshold (but the trigger will).
For example:
FADC250_TET_IGNORE_MASK 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
to do:
1) Addjust the following thresholds
Trig5: SC_B 10mV
Trig4: addjust threshold to get 3-4 kHz rate when PS4=0;
Trig2: SC_B 10mV, SC_D 10mV, ShowerSum 10mV
**Trig1 and Trag3 not mentioned in the meeting, should I change ShowerSum for these 2???
2)take dedicated runs for each trigger type in this order : TS4, TS5, TS1, TS2, TS3, TS6
It will take about 45s-60s to change TS configuration.
Each run will take about 300k to 400k triggers for 60s of beam time.
in total 12 minutes.
3)take one run with all triggers on. (2 minutes including TS configuration changing time)

1. HV channel of 2nd GEM (from upstream to downstream) switched from Board A.1 to A.5.
A.1 is not stable, sometimes it will not work, sometime do.
2. Reconnected SC_A signal cable
3. Reduced the delay cable length of SC_B by 5 feet,
4. We need to have 5 copies of ShowerSum signal. One go to FADC, four go to vmeDSC.
Therefore we need to have an extra FIFO after summing up 3 shower blocks. The copy goes to
FADC is coming right after the summing. All four ShowerSum signals used in vmeDSC are from the extra FIFO.
This FIFO will have ~10ns delay, which will match to CerSum better.
(In the past vmeDSC ch03,ch04,ch05 are all come from summing unit, FADC and vmeDSC ch14 are from the extra FIFO.)

conclusion:
1) TS5: SC_B signal is 200ns earlier than TS5
2) TS4: Shower_L,Shower_R,Shower_T are 200ns earlier than TS4, ShowerSum is 6ns later than Shower_L
3) TS1: only one peak, but showers have a wide range of 12~14 windows
4) TS2: only one peak, but most detectors have a wide range of 14-16 windows
5) SC_D, SC_B, CerSum have 44ns,38ns,44ns cable delay. SC_B is 6ns later than SC_D before delay.
After these delay, SC_B is 16ns later than ShowerSum, CerSum is 4ns later than ShowerSum.
We need to reduce the delay cable length for SC_B, SC_D and CerSum.
6) TS6 is 352ns (or 88 windows) behind its input signals
Trigger signal at Slot7_ch07 is 9 windows eariler than the trigger signal at slot8_ch15. Because Slot7_ch07 signal
is only 1 window later than that of Slot8_ch15, we should set FADC250_W_OFFSET 10 windows 40ns eariler in order to
match these 2 slots in timing. Therefore I changed slot7 from "FADC250_W_OFFSET 1060" to "FADC250_W_OFFSET 1100".
I also changed slot7 FADC250_ALLCH_DELAY from 160ns to 80ns.
FADC250_ALLCH_DELAY 80 80 80 80 80 80 80 0 80 80 80 80 80 80 80 80
4217 will be the first run after FADC slo7 config change in FADC250_ALLCH_DELAY and FADC250_W_OFFSET.

How to determine TS6 latency:
basic knowledge:
A) TS6 (FADC trigger) is ~88 windows behind FADC input signal (viewed in DiagGui).
B) TS4 is about 49 windows behind the input signal of logic unit (viewed in data).
1) Use TS4 (NIM trigger, trigger by slot8_ch14), plug the trigger signal(L1A) into FADC slot7 and slot8.
Modify FADC250_W_OFFSET and FADC250_ALLCH_DELAY of FADC config file such that the peaks of
these 2 signals stay at the same time in slot7 and slot8. The following is my current setting.
Trigger signals have ZERO delay.
slot7: FADC250_W_OFFSET 1100

Here is the peak location of each channel.
double kSlot7PeakPos_416 = { 44.5, 43.5, 44.5, 44.5, 43.5, 43.5, 43.5, 78.5, 43.5, 43.5, 43.5, 43.5, 43.5, 43.5, 43.5, 43.5 };
double kSlot8PeakPos_416 = { 40.5, 35.5, 41.5, 39.5, 38.5, 37.5, 31.5, 35.5, 35.5, 36.5, 37.5, 37.5, 37.5, 37.5, 38.5, 77.5 };
Note that the trigger signal of slot7_ch07 is 6ns late than that of slot8_ch14 because it gord thrught an extra FIFO.
2) From the above peak location, we can see that TS6_peak = 43.5 + 94 = 137.5 (windows). To align TS4 to TS6, we have to
delay TS4 by 137.5 - 77.5 = 60 windows. In my case, I change the readout list, delay TS4 by 54 windows.
We fisrtly change FADC250_W_OFFSET to view the peak location of these 2 trigger signals.
To keep slot7_ch07 at 78.5, slot7_W_offset should be 1100 - 60x4 = 860.
To keep slot8_ch15 at 77.5, slot8_W_offset should be 1060 - 60x4 = 820.
Since FADC trigger is 88 windows later than its inputs, it is impossible to view inputs and trigger within a 400ns windows.
Therefore do not bother to change slot7 delay. But we can add 60 windows (240ns) delay to slot8 such that the peaks of all
channels stay the same location.
