  42   16 Jul 2019 03:51 Marco RescignoRoutineGeneralrun 773, scintillation events triggering on all 24 channels

Majority of 5, threshold at 1000 ADC count, 24 channels enabled (16 trigger signals)  100 Hz, 30 us window.

38 k events recorded.

  43   16 Jul 2019 03:53 Marco RescignoRoutineGeneralrun 774, scintillation events triggering on all 24 channels and 200 us window

Majority of 8, threshold at 1000 ADC count, 24 channels enabled (16 trigger signals)  10 Hz, 200 us window, trigger at 9.5 microseconds.

10 k events recorded.

By direct inspection pileup seems at the 10 % level in the 200 us window.
