1 -=== Some basic stuff: ===
1 +* the relevant data is the Arrivaltime FLASH.SDIAG/BAM/4DBC3/LOW_CHARGE_ARRIVAL_TIME
2 +* besides the arivaltime from FLASH1 there is also the FLASH2/3 electron arrival time saved. The BAM data is saved for the complete RF pulse. First bunches are from FLASH1 then there is a gap for switching and then there is a second part for FLASH2 (starting at the FLASH2 start time (recorded in DAQ))

5 -* There are LOW and HIGH charge channels. For now the LOW_CHARGE Channel is the relevant one.
6 -* Bigger numbers indicate later arrival time of the electrons
7 -* The arrival time should be within -20 ps and +20 ps - otherwise there might be a problem ...

9 -=== Data structure ===
6 +* There are now (since March 2017) LOW and HIGH charge channels. for now the LOW_CHARGE Channel is the relavant one.
7 +* bigger numbers indicate later arrivaltime of the electrons
8 +* the arrivaltime sould be within -20 ps and +20 ps . otherwise there might be a problem ...
9 +* There is a BAM status parameter: FLASH.SDIAG/BAM/4DBC3/BAM_STATUS.1 (the 1 indicates FLASH1)
10 +** bit 0 (value: 1) = data is valid,
11 +** bit 1 (value: 2) = at least 1 bunch is present,
12 +** bit 2 (value: 4) = calibration is on,
13 +** bit 3 (value: 8) = internal feedback is on,
14 +** bit 4 (value: 16) = tuning mode is on

28 -Here is a summary of the ideas:
29 -
30 30  == Streak camera info ==
31 31  
32 -* the streak camera measures the delay between optical (amplified) laser and FEL (dipole radiation). - not in respect to the master clock !
33 -* streak camera ONLY delivers data which is averaged over several 10 seconds. There is NO shot to shot info.
34 -* a larger value of the streak camera delay (typically) indicates that the optical laser comes later than the FEL (or FEL earlier than the laser ...)

40 -{{info title="Correction of pump-probe delay"}}
41 -* BAM measurement: difference between electrons and timing system
42 -** usually the BAM signal has to be added to the delay ...
43 -** it is the best to test addition/subtraction and check the results on a step function (more/less sharp) - if there is no change of the data with + and - there is anyway something wrong. please contact your local contact for more information / help
44 -* Streak camera: difference between electrons and optical laser
45 -** it is a slow signal and should only be used as a rolling average over multiple minutes
46 -** if you see a drift in the streak camera which you do not see in the BAM it is resulting from the optical laser
47 -** if this (BAM - streak camera signal) is significant e.g. 200 fs over 1 h, it means the drift compensation was probably off and it should be compensated
48 -** addition/subtraction is dependent on the setup and have to be checked
