"New" FAIR Style Control System

The table below lists all event numbers. Please be aware of the following ranges for event numbers.

• 000..0255: exclusively used for MIL based timing. If event numbers in this range are distributed by the GMT, the corresponding timing messages will be processed by the relevant GMT->MIL gateway.
• 256..3999: exclusively used for the White Rabbit based General Machine Timing system.
• 4000..4095: reserved for internal use by the GMT.
