MCNA NCD Analogue Current after preamplification ===================================================== Contact: D. Wark Revision History:- ================ 5.00 D. Wark First version. 5.02 N. Oblath Added status bits to differentiate NCD signals Added double-precision pulse time Added trigger flag and trigger time words Added a reference link to MCNQ Description ----------- These banks hold the current generated in an NCD counter after the preamplification. It is formed from a sum of individual MCNC unamplified currents. Reference Links --------------- -4 -KMCNA_MCNQ MCNQ The associated shaper bank -3 -KMCNA_MCNA MCNA The next preamplified current that contributes to the same MCNS signal bank. -2 -KMCNA_MCNS MCNS The signal bank this preamplified current contributed to. -1 -KMCNA_MCNC MCNC The first unamplified current that produced this amplified. (Follow MCNC's _MCNC link for the remainder). Structural Links ---------------- None. Status Bits ----------- Note: Any status bit parameters are defined to work with bit functions such as IAND and BTEST. Bit Mnemonic Description --- -------- ----------- 0 KMCNS_MUX_SIGNAL Indicates this bank is a MUX (MCNS) bank -- should never be set when lifting this bank 1 KMCNS_SHP_SIGNAL Indicates this bank is a Shaper (MCNQ) bank -- should never be set when lifting this bank 2 KMCNS_PREAMP_SIGNAL Indicates this bank is a preamplified-current bank -- should always be set when lifting this bank Data Words ---------- Data types: B(bit), I, F, D(double), H(hollerith 4 char) +1 I KMCNA_COUNTER_NO Counter number +2 I KMCNA_NUM_BINS Number of time bins for current array +3 I KMCNA_ID MCNA histogram ID +4 F KMCNA_BIN_WIDTH Time width per bin for current array +5 F KMCNA_BIN_LO Start time of first bin of current array +6 D KMCNA_DP_PULSE_TIME Double-precision pulse time, first word +7 second word +8 I KMCNA_TRIG_FLAG Trigger flag +9 D KMCNA_TRIG_TIME Trigger time, first word +10 second word +11 F Spare .. +16 F KMCNA_CURRENT First word of current array.
