+The SpecTcl Control has been adapted for special functions required for the analysis of S800 data. SpecTcl can be open by from computer [[Software#u6pc5 (data U6)|u6pc5]] by clicking in the icon **SpecTcl** located in its desktop, or from a Linux terminal by typing ''./SpecTcl'' from directory **/user/s800/operations/spectcl/s800v7** .

+Spectra definition files can be found in directory **/user/s800/operations/spectcl/s800v7/Definitions**. Some pre-defined windows with useful spectra can be found in directory **/user/s800/operations/spectcl/s800v7Windows**.

-The inverse map which enables the trajectory reconstruction of the particles within the spectrograph beam line can be loaded. Snapshots of CRDC and TPPAC events sampled in the pads and strips can be viewed. If this option is "armed", the sample is read out for the first event that falls into the specified gate. This is a diagnostics tool to analyze the response of the CRDCs and TPPACs.
