    keyword=Re: multiple pulsing T1,T2

    Following Bob's suggestion, I plugged triggers T1 through T8 into an
    multi-hit 1877 TDC in slot 12 of ROC 2, channels 16-31. I updated the
    db_D.dat file to reflect the addition of these signals. Here is the
    trigger map and variable names in the ROOT tree:
    Trigger     TDC Channel    Variable
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    T1             16           RTrigT1
    T2             17           RTrigT2
    T3             18           RTrigT3
    T4             19           RTrigT4
    T5             20           RTrigT5
    T6             21           RTrigT6
    T7             22           RTrigT7
    T8             23           RTrigT8
    
    I did a cursory check with T1 and T2 with cosmics. It does seem that
    about 5-6% of the T1 events have multiple hits in TDC. T2 was less
    conclusive, but the deadtime with only T2 and all other triggers prescaled was less
    than I saw this afternoon, at 16%. I also saw in a short run that about 7% of
    T2 events had multiple hits.
