Dear flowers,

there is some confusion here about how to document the electronic settings.
Can I write "the threshold was set to 20V"?, or better "the threshold
voltage was 20"??, i.e. are the voltage numbers of the PMTs really arbitrary
and not the real VOLT units? Once in a while I read things like "FL1 640V,
Gain1" etc. Is this wrong?

Thanks,

marcus
