The MesyTec Shaper & Constant Fraction (MSCF) is used to process the PMT/det signals for the ADC in the second DAQ.
It can be setup on its front panel, but single channel setup is very tedious.
Remote control of the settings is possible using an epics server and client.

All of the following is done with the "litv-exp" user:

server: atpnuc001 (in the screen session "E142")
client: lxg1275 

The server should run undisturbed, but in case of a power failure, you can start the server like this:
> ssh litv-exp@atpnuc001
> cd e142
> ./E142_start_ioc.sh

To check server:
> ssh litv-exp@atpnuc001
> screen -x (CTRL-a CTRL-d to leave screen)

To connect the client gui for remote control, do:
> ssh litv-exp@lxg1275
> E142_epics
The panel is more or less self-explaining. 
One thing has to be noted: the Monitor Channel selection is shifted by -1.
I.e., [ch 1] is button [0], etc.

The MSCF settings can be stored and loaded to/from file by using a bash-script.
The settings will be saved/loaded from: 
/u/litv-exp/e142/mscf_settings/
files names are "setting_e142.<linux_timestamp>"

The scripts are also in /u/litv-exp/e142/mscf_settings/
use 
./mscf_save.sh                   for saving the current settings to a new file
use 
./mscf_load_last.sh              to load the last settings file (by timestamp in the filename) 
use 
./mscf_load_file.sh <filename>   to load the settings of a specific file

MBS error "TDC data ready wait" solved. Common stop trigger (20 kHz) was missing. (according to Sebastian)

PTB HV dividers arrived. Divider ratios are:

PT120:          12003,341 
PT200.1:        19859,033 
Ohmlabs:        248517

Checked HV cable to particle detector south. Label is HV2 Scraper. 

Connected to Messplatz III HV5

Konstantin and I generated a signal in the Messhütte and sent it to the ESR. 
There, we used a 44m BNC cable that was sufficently long to reach all detectors. 
Our signal was connected instead of the PMT/PD. Hence, it was a roundtrip measurement.
In the Messhütte we checked the delay between the generated signal.

PD North 1460(1)ns
PD South 1455(1)ns
Particle North 1239(1)ns
Particle South 1179(1)ns
UV North 1322(1)ns
UV Middle 1322(1)ns
UV South 1321(1)ns
Cu 1322(1)ns

We also checked the time delay of our cable to the detectors by measuring the reflection of the unterminated cable. 
Function generator to detector: 1520(5)/2 ns
Function generator to scope: 5.1(5) ns
Total: 765(3) ns

The additional signals from PMTs and XUV detector needed for spectroscopic analysis in the second DAQ are patched to AP Messhütte (MH) via the red patch panel at the inside of the target region. The patch channels F1 to F8 (also labeled A to H in red on white) are used and extended by a cable bundle to reach below the mirror chamber. Inside the MH the signals arrive at the red patch panel and are forwarded to the blue patch panel close to the laser DAQ using channels 1 to 8 (also labeled A to H).
 
The entire connection for these 8 channels from the mirror chamber to the blue panel has been tested with a pulser signal of ~115mV amplitude. After transfer the amplitude has decreased to ~40mV, see also attached fotos.

The signal transport time from the mirror chamber to the blue panel is ~407 ns. This was measured by patching a logic puls from ESR to MH and back to ESR, as show in the delay_ESR... foto attached.
