++desc: The max 600 µs acceleration time of FLASH is devided between FLASH1 and FLASH2. This 600 µs window starts with FLASH1 (up to now)  at a time"label" of 700 µs (for historic reasons). Thus the first bunch of FLASH 1 comes at "700" and the last possibel bunch comes at 1300 (700+600). After FLASH1 train is over ther is a about 70µs switching time with no bunches. Then comes the first FLASH2 bunch.  Thus if e.g. the start time of FLASH2 is 1200 it means that FLASH2 starts at column 500 (1200-700)  in the HDF5 files. (However for yet unknown reasons this may change by 2-3 colums ...)

++==== User Data (FLASH1) ====
++
++===== GHz ADCs =====
++
++ADC traces of the (SPDevices 412) GHZ ADCs available for the users . More information about the ADCs can be found [[here>>doc:FLASHUSER.Data Acquisition and controls.Controls (DOOCS, jDDD,\.\.\.).MTCA ADCs.WebHome]]
++//saved on DEMAND in the user DAQ//
++\\The HDF5 names for the ADC traces are depending on the beamline :
++\\PG Beamline:
++{{code language="none"}}/FL1/Experiment/PG/ADQ412 GHz ADC/CH00/TD{{/code}}
++{{code language="none"}}/FL1/Experiment/PG/ADQ412 GHz ADC/CH01/TD{{/code}}
++{{code language="none"}}/FL1/Experiment/PG/ADQ412 GHz ADC/CH02/TD{{/code}}

++{{code language="none"}}/FL1/Experiment/BL1/ADQ412 GHz ADC/CH01/TD{{/code}}
++{{code language="none"}}/FL1/Experiment/BL1/ADQ412 GHz ADC/CH02/TD{{/code}}
++{{code language="none"}}/FL1/Experiment/BL1/ADQ412 GHz ADC/CH03/TD{{/code}}

++
++DOOCS prop : {{code language="none"}}FLASH.FEL/ADC.ADQ.PG/EXP1.CH00/CH00.TD  or CH00.DAQ.TD{{/code}}
++here the {{code language="none"}}CH00.TD{{/code}} is the full ADC trace as it is sampled ( typically several 100.000 samples per pulse train) while the {{code language="none"}}CH00.DAQ.TD{{/code}} trace only has the number of samples which are sent to the DAQ OR if //grouping// is activated the {{code language="none"}}CH00.DAQ.TD{{/code}} conatins only the grouped spectra. To read the ADC trace with an online analysis program the {{code language="none"}}CH00.DAQ.TD{{/code}} is used preferablly.
++DAQ channel: {{code language="none"}}FLASH.FEL/ADC.ADQ.PG/EXP1.CH00{{/code}}
++
++In addition there are also additional parameters saved like:
++
++* {{code language="none"}}sample frequency{{/code}}: it shows the sample frequency in MHz (number of samples per µs). NOTE: the clock of the ADC is NOT synchronized to the FLASH timing system. Thus the number of samples between bunches in the bunch train may be not integer numbers which will be show up for long bunch trains.
++* {{code language="none"}}number of samples{{/code}}: total number of samoles recorded for each 10 Hz trigger
++* {{code language="none"}}error (ADC):{{/code}} 0 indicates that there was no error
++* {{code language="none"}}/CH0-CH3/offset{{/code}}: To use the full dynamic range of the ADC one can shift the base line . This offset is saved here.
++
++===== MHz ADCs =====
++
++similar to the GHz ADCs the MHz ADCs are saved with HDF5 names like:
++{{code language="none"}}/FL1/Experiment/BL1/SIS8300 100MHz ADC/CH2/TD{{/code}}
++DOOCS prop : FLASH.FEL/ADC.SIS.BL1/EXP1.CH02/CH00.TD
++DAQ channel: : FLASH.FEL/ADC.SIS.BL1/EXP1.CH02
++
++In addition there are also additional parameters saved like:
++
++* {{code language="none"}}sample frequency{{/code}}: it shows the sample frequency in MHz (number of samples per µs). NOTE: the clock of the ADC is NOT synchronized to the FLASH timing system.
