Serial Xon/Xoff as requested.
Intensity and Dynamic Range.
 Intensity can be Controlled by:
 Dc Voltage Adjustment.
 A piece of Film Filter between LED and the Light
Guide.
 Range:
 Using an LED with Longer Wavelength, Below the
Absorbing Band of the Fiber (not enough).
 Lower the Voltage of Near Side to a Safe Value, while
Pulsing the Far Side.
 Possible magic.
Test with trapezoidal light guide.
• There is enough space between the L-Gs for the LED
board.
• We positioned the board 3 cm from the photocathode.
• We used the demo, (baby) calorimeter.
• We measured the pulse high at the near and the far side.
• The ratio near / far was 8 to 10.
• Variation because of positioning.
