[Gb-ccb] CCB interface questions

[Brian Mason]

hi Martin- Melinda & I had a couple of questions about the data returned
by the CCB:

-Do the timestamps give the start, stop, or middle of the integration (or
something else)?

-As far as we can see the ordering of the data in a single integration is
not specified-- for instance, if you think of the 64 data for a single
integration as a multi-dimensional array (N_dim=2: CCB input port and
phase switching state), which is the most rapidly varying index, and how
do you assign the data to specific input ports and physical phase switch
states?  Does this specification exist?  if not, I'd propose that you or
we define it reasonably soon ie while we're actively working on the
manager.

 thanks,
  Brian
