 At present, there are three electronic "sources" with time information for ToF calculation: ORTEC TACs, Phillips TDC, and Mesytec MTDC. Some background information can be found [[Timing|here]]. At present, there are three electronic "sources" with time information for ToF calculation: ORTEC TACs, Phillips TDC, and Mesytec MTDC.

 +  * Select SpecTcl window S800_TOF.win 
 +      * Make sure that the time range of spectra is wide enough (e.g. between -3000 to 3000) 
 +      * The three columns correspond to the RF-FP ToF (left), OBJ-FP (center), and XFP-FP (right)
 +      * The first (top) row corresponds to the Phillips TDC
 +      * The second row corresponds to the MTDC with all the hits included
 +      * The third row corresponds to the MTDC with only the first hit
 +      * The fourth row corresponds to the ORTEC TACs. Note that there is not RF-FP TAC
 +      * The two spectra in the fifth row corresponds to the MTDC summary spectra of OBJ-FP and XFP-FP ToFs (zoomed in). The spectra show the ToF (vertical axis) vs. hit number (horizontal axis). In an unreacted setting, one expects to see the most of the "good" ToF peak recorded in the first hit

   * Although the ToF reference ("start") in all the ToF modules is given by the FP scintillator E1 up, the electronic path from the detector to each module is different (see {{:wiki:s800electronicstschematics-to20150907.pdf|main electronics diagram}} for more details)   * Although the ToF reference ("start") in all the ToF modules is given by the FP scintillator E1 up, the electronic path from the detector to each module is different (see {{:wiki:s800electronicstschematics-to20150907.pdf|main electronics diagram}} for more details)
