1. Runlist for fermilab beam test 

 beam hit the left edge of top Ecal (1498,252) 
 New HV is: 1260, 1300, 920, 960, 940, 1940, 1780, 2100 

    
 777    First run - MWPC trigger -  

 783 Preshower channels set to 2V range in FADC, new HV is: 1260, 1300, 920, 960, 940, 1840, 1680, 2000.    TS1 and TS2 

 784 TS1 and TS2 - move detector position so beam is hitting the center of three ECals, junk 

 785    New HV is: 1160, 1200, 820, 860, 840, 1840, 1680, 2000  

 786 TS1 only - beam centered on calorimeter (1440,315) 

 787 lower HV on preshower, New HV is: 1260, 1300, 820, 860, 840, 1740, 1580, 1900 

 788 

 790 junk 

 792 

 793 reduce 100 V more on preshower, New HV is: 1260, 1300, 820, 860, 840, 1640, 1480, 1800 
 short run PEB1 crashed 

 795 switch to FADC only config TiIntelvmeha8 and use 

 Changing down stream Cerenkov N2 pressure from 4.0 to 0.8 psia 

 ===========good data start from here=================== 
 01/14 22:55 
 796 move to Top block, use this New HV: 1260, 1300, 880, 920, 940, 1640, 1440, 1800, FADC ch11 and ch12 swapped. 
 These two channels are down stream Cherenkov. After swapped, Down cherenkov inner PMT is in ch12.

 -------------adjusting HV for 12GeV start------------ 
 Request 16 GeV but MCR can not deliver it, switch to 12 GeV. We then determine the HV
