EM  DATA TAKING CONFIGURATIONS

 04-Feb-2003

Configuration 1 Main calibration run

Configuration 2 Control sample and transition from vertical to horizontal set-up, to make sure everything is working OK.

Configuration 3 Main Photon run

Configuration 4 Run to validate the input spectrum not the LAT design. Requires  the CAL-LO trigger to be changed to about 4 MeV/crystal (which is about 5 sigma away from the noise ?). We have already investigated with ELX and I&T online that DAC settings can be individually set.
