Peak-based mode in multiple heart-cutting

In peak based mode, three parameters determine how peaks are parked:
1 A trigger indicates, if a peak has been detected, e.g. because a reference
2 The cut is parked by switching the valve. This happens either if the peak end is
3 The width t of the green area, which is used for parking a peak is fix and
Please note that the peak parking may start even before the peak trigger if the

sampling time is shorter than the time corresponding to the loop volume. In this
case, the green area will start left to the trigger triangle.

been exceeded, whatever comes first. The purpose of the cut size is delaying
the parking such that a defined part of the peak, typically its center, is parked.
