0215 Data taken yesterday featured a very low trigger rate: one file per data series. Reset DAQ and try again.
Start data acquistion with Ba-133 source in same position as yesterday, triggering on charge channels with 0.1 ms trigger delay and 0.4096 ms trace length. OR charge trigger threshold 40 ADC bins for all charge channels, and coincidence time set to 10 μs. Flash for one hour, followed by cool down for 2 hours. Then take four 30-minute data series each at +/-2 V & -/+2 V biases. Flash all LEDs for 6 seconds between data series with usual settings, and wait 20 minutes for cryostat to cool. Finish with a 20 minute flash and 2-hour cool down.
Pulses look alright. Reset timing link during test run. Trigger rate around 3-4 Hz.
0235 Take advantage of detector flash to fill N2 cold trap full.
1057 Filled LN2 cold trap.
1720 Fed Cricket 4 pellets.
