1. T1 out, disable D1 (Q4,Q5,Q6 too), send the beam to FC0, take scope image of the area.

2. T1 in, enable D1 (Q4,Q5,Q6 too), bend the beam by 90 deg, take a run with 1000 events.

Fit by Sadiq

run#    FC1 area (nVs)       ADC9 mean|| 
3703    1201.1 +- 10.1       1126  +- 0.8
3705    776.8 +- 112         791.8 +- 0.6
3706    367.7 +- 2.32        242.1 +- 0.3 

1. Auto fit

[math] 1.063 \pm 0.013 [/math] nV s /ADC channel

Fixed point fit

In these fit, the point (0,0) introduced, and the line was forced to pass through this point. The slope was fitted by root.

1st try:

[math]0.789 \pm 0.004[/math] nV s /ADC channel

My fixed point fit

In these fit, the point (0,0) introduced, and the line was forced to pass through this point. I choose the slopes.

1st fit: [math] 0.94 [/math] nV s /ADC channel

2nd fit: [math] 0.91 [/math] nV s /ADC channel

So, the average and variance is: [math] 0.94 \pm 0.02 [/math] nV s /ADC channel

The average of these three types of fit

[math] 1.063 \pm 0.013 [/math] nV s /ADC channel

[math] 0.789 \pm 0.004[/math] nV s /ADC channel

[math] 0.94 \pm 0.02 [/math] nV s /ADC channel

The average is 0.9306. The variance is 0.1372.

So, The calibration is: [math] 0.93 \pm 0.14 [/math] nV s /ADC channel
