08/02/2021 Updating FADC to 0x0c14

  • See log entry.
  • The new firmware has a few fixes
    • the most important one is that it will now emit the digitized pulse data for cases where the firmware 'pulse identification' fails due to pile-up in the pedelstal samples. ** This update should make it straight forward to understand what is happening in this type of anomalous event, and recover the pulse ADC information during analysis.
    • This has been enabled in the ROCs by adding the line 'faSetRoguePTWFallBack(FA_SLOT,0xffff);' in Download() and Prestart().
