Reported by Martin Kestel

Symptoms:

Bad waveforms from an ATWD which has been idle for a long time.

Approach:

Thorsten and Azriel report that this feature of  the ATWD has been known for years.

Solution:

The solution is to throw away several ATWD waveforms after recovering from an extended idle period

Summary:

Nothing is to be done to DOM hardware or firmware to 'solve' this problem.   Software is expected to automatically throw suspect events away, with or without pretesting them.
