What are we learning?
¥We are using the T0 OR information to probe every
possible problem in the connection chain between the IR and the TDCs.
¥Cross talk is a real issue, but the non-linear
behavior of the system is due to many factors (not just the long delay cables),
and might require the complete elimination of twisted pair at every stage.
¥In parallel to the timing studies, Andrei now has hard
evidence that the noise issue is dramatically different in PR03 compared to
what it was in PR01.
