| VME Logic Unit | CAEN V512 8ch 4fold Programmable Logic Unit |
| 2x CFD | home made Constant Fraction Trigger |
| 3x NIM/ECL Conv. | home made NIM to ECL Converter |
| AND | CAEN N405 3fold Logic Unit |
| Logic Fan In Fan Out | LeCroy 429A Logic Fan-In/Fan-Out |
| Fan Out | CAEN N105 Dual Fan-Out 1x16 |
| OR | CAEN N113 Dual OR 12 in 2 out |
| Gate & Delay Generator | EG&G GG8000 octal Gate Generator |
Timing Scheme
The timing scheme was produced using a pulse generator (BNC BL-2, settings: rise time = 3 ns, fall time = 30 ns) simulating the detector signals from the two bases of one scintillator panel.
The start time is given relative to the output of the first CFD. Start and length are given in micro seconds.
