TCQUENCH parameters

Hello,

I'm somehow stuck with the TCQUENCH option in Fluka...
Could you please explain what is exactly the reference time from which
the WHAT(1) seconds are counted. Is it a time when primary particle
originated, or a time when the binning in question scored it's first
event? Or what?

I need to simulate a TOF detector and I started with a simple model
(attached is my input file), where non-relativistic proton beam (~10 eV)
originates in vacuum and travels towards the area (100 cm away) where I
score protons' track-lenght density with the USRBIN option. Since this
is a non-relativistic case I use classical formulas to estimate time for
my primary beam to reach the detector, but I can see nothing in the
detector with these times. Increasing scoring time 3 orders of magnitude
does help to score something, but still I'm not clear what is wrong.
Well, it may be that I miss out something very simple but in any case I
would really appreciate your help as I'm stuck with it %)

Thanks in advance,
Andrey.
