The input data is in the form of un-blocked byte stream disk files, including odd-byte length records.
Data processing cannot start part way through a file.

Tigress Germanium detectors are 4-crystal clovers, each segmented 8-fold.

The Bambino Si detector consists of 2 arrays of 16 by 24 elements.

The time (cfd) word associated with each core is extracted from the raw timestamp data by taking detector 1 coreA as a reference, and calculating the difference, offset by 8192 channels.
The suppressor and bambino cfd words are provided similarly.
This allows all cfd words to fit into 16bit words.

There is a config file to allow mapping of the electronics channel number.
