Mike,

I think that Ibrahim did bring up the issue of the EC at some point. And Ibrahim’s workaround seems to work… Fixing the routine would make things a little easier, perhaps.

Regarding sector 5, I think the issue is that the pedestals were not correctly set originally - and no fix was made during cooking. We had a similar issue in the second half of g13 after someone swapped out an ADC during the run. If so, there is not much one can do beyond what Ibrahim does - except to recook with better pedestals (no way of fixing it completely, though, since the lost data are lost)

Cheers,

	Pawel

The plots he shows https://clasweb.jlab.org/rungroups/g7/wiki/images/3/36/Iha_EC_study.pdf cannot be reproduced with the variables in the standard clasEvent build because there is a bug in the extraction of the EC_w() (w position in the EC).
