 The **connector** number is defined between 0 and 3, and it is related to the pad number (**pad**). The value 0 refers to the first 64 pads, and correspond to the strips in the dispersive direction of the first TPPAC. The value 1 is for pads between 63 and 127, and includes the strips in the non-dispersive direction of the first TPPAC. The value 2 corresponds to pads between 128 and 191, which are associated to the strips in the dispersive direction of the second TPPAC. Finally, the value 3 corresponds to pads between 191 to 256, and covers the strips in the non-dispersive direction of the second TPPAC.

+| 15 | Phillips TDC time from the LaBr (optional)  |
+| 4 | XFP-FP time-of-flight from TAC  |
+| 5 | OBJ-FP time-of-flight from TAC  |
+Note that the time values from the Phillips TDC are subtracted by SpecTcl to the time from the S800 trigger E1 up (encoded in the [[#trigger packet|trigger packet]]) in order to calculate the corresponding time-of-flight. On the other hand, the times from the TACs (Ch 4 and 5) correspond to actual time-of-flight values.
