Apart from the detectors listed above, the voltages of the object scintillator and the **electrostatic gate** of the [[Detectors#Cathode Readout Drift Chambers (CRDC)|CRDCs]] are adjusted manually. | Apart from the detectors listed above, the voltages of the [[Detectors#Plastic Scintillators|object scintillator]] |

The bias for the object scintillator is controlled via the H.V. power supply {{:wiki:Manual_Canberra_HV_3002D.pdf|Canberra model 3002 D}} located in the crate to the right of the data-U6 (see figure below). The voltage will be adjusted at the beginning of the experiment. This scintillator has to be turned off or put on "standby" when entering the vault due to its sensitivity to light. | The bias for the object scintillator is controlled via the H.V. power supply {{:wiki:Manual_Canberra_HV_3002D.pdf|Canberra model 3002 D}} located in the crate to the right of the data-U6 (see figure below). The voltage will be adjusted at the beginning of the experiment. This scintillator has to be turned off or put on "standby" when entering the vault due to its sensitivity to light. The voltage used for this detector depends on the fragment nuclei that will be measured. Check with D. Bazin for a reference value. |

In order for the CRDCs to work, it is necessary to bias their electrostatic gate. This is done via the H.V. Tennelec power supply located on the left side of the object-scintillator Canberra power supply (see figure below). | In order for the [[Detectors#Cathode Readout Drift Chambers (CRDC)|CRDCs]] to work, it is necessary to bias their **electrostatic gate**. This is done via the H.V. Tennelec power supply located on the left side of the object-scintillator Canberra power supply (see figure below). The typical value is 20 V. |
