The current handler accepts the following subset of Goosy formats ...

Events of type 4 subtype 1 (fixed length, section 1.5.2 of Goosy Buffer Structures manual)

These events are mapped onto single item groups numbered 1,2,3...
Zero datawords are suppressed.

e.g.
GROUP[1:6] (data)

Events of type 10 (VME generated, section 1.5.7 of Goosy Buffer Structures manual)

Sub-event type 34 (pattern) are ignored.
Sub-event types 42 (VME ADCs) and 10 (CAMAC Silena ADCs) are decoded.
Sub-event type 98 (Scanner+FADC) are decoded. FADC data must be accessed via a user routine using group pointer argument.

The mapping to Eurogam addressing places each ADC in its own single-item group. The group number is calculated as follows ...

CAMAC ADCs: group = ( vsn * 8 ) + sa

VME ADCs: group = 144 + ( vmecard * 8 ) + adc_number_on_card

Hence CAMAC ADCs upto vsn=16 and VME cards upto number 13 are allowed.

e.g.
camac[16:143] (data)
vme[144:194] (data)
scanner[200] (x,y)
fadc[256:259] (dummy) ..... Note extended group format
