root command line used: PAA->Draw("PADC.PADC785N[3]/2-8>>photons(2000,0,2000)","")

ROOT gives values for A = 0.322688 +/- 1.09 and B is 0.997955 +/- 0.0018. Here A has a very large error. Plotting the function only using B will give values that are roughly 0.3 keV away from the expected energy values.

So the calibrated command is

PAA->Draw("PADC.PADC785N[3]/2-8 + 0.997955>>photons(2000,0,2000)","")
