Processing old data

[153957]

Data from before 2008 was recorded differently (HiSPARC I electronics?) and is stored differently.

Some things need to be determined to properly handle event processing for these events:

• The traces seem to be stored using mV as units, is that correct?
• What is the conversion between ADC - mV?
• The units of the pulse height and integral?
• What is the sample rate? (5 ns?)
• Master and Slave events are stored separately, independent trigger?
• What were the trigger settings?
• Is the value -10000 an error code?

I'll have to check my notes. The HiSPARC I electronics used a very different software setup. Master / Slave was not possible, but we had one station which was made up of two hardware setups and two pc's, maybe with a custom trigger. I think I remember having written down a lot of these details in my notebooks.

Ok good, it would be nice if we could also process that data properly for the ESD.
