Entry  Thu May 6 21:45:30 2021, Helmut, Detectors, beam position on TE5 grids 2021-05-06_21-32-36-171.png
The two grids do not work very well, one x position is opposite to the other.
But at least a guidance for the future, this was good injection of 78Kr with a thick Be target.

Entry  Fri May 7 01:49:03 2021, Rui-Jiu Chen, DAQ, Comparison of I_Raw/Q_Raw between different reference level  20210501_NTCAPPreparation.png
This is a comparison of I_Raw/Q_Raw between different reference level. The range of NTCAP ADC is only 2^15 bit. So signals (I_Raw and Q_Raw) should 
not be outside ADC range. It is clear that there is not point outside the ADC range when using reference level -30dBm.
