keyword=HV adjustment for S1 (RHRS)
The HV for the right HRS S1 scintillator were adjusted to align the
ADC spectra. Figure 1 shows the spectra before the HV adjustment for
run # 20037. Figure 2 shows the spectra after HV adjustment for run
# 20045. The old values were determined by looking at the signal
from each PMT on an oscilloscope.
In the process of adjusting the S1 HV's, I discovered that the
S1-L/S1-R HV or signal channels appear to be swapped from what I
expect. The S1-1L HV cable is plugged into card #2 (HV crate #3)
channel #0, and S1-6L is plugged into channel #5, etc. Then S1-1R is
plugged into channel #6, and S1-6R into channel #11, etc. However,
when I change the HV on channel #0, the S1-1R amplitude changes and when I change the HV on channel #6, the S1-1L amplitude changes. I
checked the cables on the detector and the labeling appears to be
fine. Tomorrow, I will check the signal cables to make sure they
didn't get swapped in the electronics rack for S1.
