 +      * Make a gate on spectrum **IC.SUM** selecting the region of interest, and call it "IC"
 +      * Looking at the ToF spectra gated on "IC" compare the recorded events in the spectra with the number of events in the gate
 +      * The window file **S800_TOF_EFFICIENCY.win** includes all the spectra needed
