    Revision History:-
    ================
 
    5.00  H. Deng     First version.  Make _TIME double precision.
    5.02  N. Oblath   Added status bits to differentiate NCD signals
                      Added trigger-flag, trigger-time, and 
                      shaper-card-info words
                      Changed a reference link from MCNC to MCNA
    5.03  N. Oblath   Added Note 1
          N. Oblath   Added KMCNQ_EV


 
Description
-----------

This bank holds the shaper peak ADC.
It is formed from a sum of individual MCNC unamplified currents.
 
 
Reference Links
---------------

-1  -KMCNQ_MCNA   MCNA  The amplified current that contributed to this shaper.
                         (Follow MCNC's _MCNC link for the remainder).
-2  -KMCNQ_MCNQ   MCNQ  The next shaper event which will contribute to the same EV (i.e. the chain of NESs)
-3  -KMCNQ_EV     EV The EV bank to which this MCNQ contributed



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 bank -- should always be set when lifting this bank
 2     KMCNS_PREAMP_SIGNAL   Indicates this bank is a preamplified-current (MCNA) bank -- should never be set when lifting this bank

Data Words
----------
 
    Data types: B(bit), I, F, D(double), H(hollerith 4 char)

  +2    D  KMCNQ_TIME         Pulse time first word
  +3                                second word
  +4    I  KMCNQ_TRIG_FLAG    Trigger flag
  +5    D  KMCNQ_TRIG_TIME    Trigger time first word
  +6                                       second word

Notes
-----

1)  If full pulses are not being simulated this word contains a hard-coded approximation of the ADC value.  As of 5_0281, this is the conversion used (in mc_ncd_shaper.for):
ADC = nint(127.556 * Energy / 0.764MeV)
