    I've modified the kumac that displays the detector histograms in an attempt to clean up the displays (and reduce the total number of pages that need to be checked). We have gone from 67 pages to 54, which is a reasonable start. The main changes are:

    1. Only fit the peak for pedestal supressed S1/S2 histograms (since the fit wasn't very good for the ones with pedestals, and the numbers weren't being used anywhere). Also, make the histogram and fit different colors.

    2. Change the histograms showing mean S1/S2 ADC values to show the mean value (as taken from the fit). The old version took the central value, but subtracted the
    lower edge used in the fit (presumably, this USED to be related to the pedestal, but that is no longer the case).

    3. Combine left and right PMTs on single plot for the time-dependence plots. These were also converted to the mean from the fit.

    4. Put the track multiplicity and the VDC plane multiplicity on one page.

    5. For each of the PID detectors, put the TDCs on one page. The density of plots is high, but the density of information is quite low, so it's still easy to look for any problems.

    6. Eliminated the semi-infinite list of error/status/warning messages given when the kumac is run.

    It may also be worthwhile removing some of the raw TDC spectra, and replacing them with histograms showing the number of hits per channel (which tells you if the TDC is working, and allows easier comparison of the relative efficiency of adjacent channels).
