On May 19 Cosmin and I tested 10 PFC. This is to explain how it was done. 

Every PFC is plugged in the PPC and by using CTFE pulse generator every channel is pulsed for about a minute. 

Since CTFE pulser can only pulse 1EM and 1HAD channels at the same time; different channels in PFC was pulsed 
by switching the CTFE pulser output through 8 PPC inputs. 

This test is completed by using L1Cal_IIb_Gui. L1Cal_IIb_Gui's main menu has a "Command File" button by which 
it is possible to use ".cmd" files that are understood by ADF2 system. 

Find_Dac.cmd file which is under "Command Files" directory was used. Executing this file causes GUI 
to request two fields to be filled : 1) ADF2 's slot number, 2) ADF2 's serial number. 

We used the one that was plugged at slot 8 and having serial number a0 . 

CTFE generates pulses, and L1Cal_IIb_GUI finds ( in this mode ) average values of those pulses. 
The only thing to compare is eta/phi values of the pulsed channel which is shown by GUI and eta/phi 
values of the PPC inputs. 

Test results showed that all of the cables have no errors.
