Thanks Yuxuan and Fernando. Just now I set the minSectorDifference as 
1, then I got the coincidence output file. But as what Fernando said, 
coincidences under setting 1 are maybe not valid. I feel confused 
about this configure. What's "block" mean? Does its meaning depend on 
the setting of "readout/setDepth"? Thanks.
