+usage: thresholds_automatic.pl --endpoint=<endpoint_address>
+#--chain=<SPI-chain> [--offset=<number in decimal or hex>]
+       [--help] [--mode=<"padiwa"|"cbmrich">] [--32channel]
+
+example:
+
+thresholds_automatic.pl --endpoint=0x303 --chain=0 --offset=0x10 --32channel
+or in short
+thresholds_automatic.pl -e 0x303 -o 0x10 -c 0
+
+currently only mode "padiwa" is implemented.
+
+polarity: tells what the status of bit 32 is, when the thresholds are set to 0
+32channel: when set the tool assums a TDC with 32 channels, leading and
+trailing channels use two channels

+example:
+run_threshold_on_system.pl --endpoints=0x301-0x308,0x310..0x315,0x380
+--chains=0..3 --offset=4 --polarity=0
+will run for endpoints 0x301-0x308 and 0x310-0x315 and 0x380 for all chains (0..3)
