To investigate our electronics noise, NSB and background events, several special measurements are needed.

To do these measurements, three different measurement types are available:

• RATESCAN/RATESCAN2: normal and special ratescan - more details https://trac.fact-project.org/wiki/SpecialRatescans
• CUSTOM: special runs - more details: https://trac.fact-project.org/wiki/TestMeasurementsClosedLid

Analyzers, please provide the information

• which measurements are needed
• whether the taken measurements were of good quality

Shifters, please provide the information

• whether the measurement was successful
• when you did the measurement: data, time (for ratescan) / run number (for custom)
