757 -The BAM measures the arrivaltime of** FLASH 1 and FLASH2** in the same data set (thus also sorted in at /FL1/ !). The first values are for FLASH1 bunches.
758 -After a gap of about 70 micros ( 70 colums)  with  as entry for the switching between FLASH 1 and 2 the values for the electrons used in FLASH2 start.  The start time of FLASH2 is also recorded in the DAQ. FLASH1 start time is for historic reasons 700. thus if e.g. the start time of FLASH2 ( property name see below) is 1200 it means that FLASH starts at column 500 (1200-700) ...

846 +* The BAM 4DBC3 measures the arrivaltime of** FLASH 1 and FLASH2** in the same data set (thus also sorted in at /FL1/ !).
847 +* The BAM 8FL2XTDS measures only for FLASH2 BUT has the same data structure as the other BAMS ... thus there are also (random) values in in the  FLASH1 time slot 
848 +** Structure: The first values are for FLASH1 bunches.
