Pocket Multi-channel Signal Analyzer IIntroduction Key Features Applications Key Specifications Hardware Connections

Introduction The Pocket Multi-Channel Signal Analyzer (PMCSA )is aunique test and measurement instrument.It is designed for applications in electronic,nuclear and optical spectral signal analyzing. PMCSA is most recently developed by HAL Technology based on the digital signal processing (DSP)technology. A variety of analog input signals can be analyzed fast and accurately. The software shipped with the unit can display the distributions of input signal amplitudes on PC through the high speed USB interface. The data can be acquired in real time and easily stored and printed at the user’s choice. No additional power supply to the unit is needed. The PMCSA is especially useful for analysis of pulse height and distribution.It can be used with a variety of sensors or transducers. HAL Technology would welcome the customer’s design input to enhance the analyzing capabilities.

Simple Operation Instructions for MCSA 2.0 The multi-channel signal analyzer software, MCSA Version 2.0, is used together with a MCSA Pocket Multi-Channel Signal Analyzer purchased. It is compatible with Window operation systems 98/2000/ME/NT/XP. The software has a built-in help and is easy to install and upgradeable. The PMSA Version 2.0 is specially designed for analysis of pulse height and distribution (PHA). The software is easy to use. The users can normally find the function name of each button/icon by placing the mouse pointed at the center of buttons. Both Information Window and Graphics Window provide all the detailed information for the users in direct view. The special feature on Waveform Mode allows users view the time-domain input signal in real time without need of an extra oscilloscope.

MCSA GUI

Open files in *.cjm and *.cjt format. Save data into the file in *.cjm or *.cjt format Set up the acquisition parameters. Print the current histogram. Help on use of PMSA. Start sampling for either waveform or histogram. Stop sampling. Clear the current displayed histogram. Switch to Histogram mode. Switch to Waveform mode. Calibrate the voltage response of the PMSA.

Acquisition Setting Counting time applies both real-time and duration acquisition. No data is refreshed in duration acquisition until counting time ended Data is refreshed in real time

Instrument Setting Input Signal Maximum Amplitude. It must be consistent with the hardware selection. By selecting Absolute Peak Mode, only falling edge of a pulse reaching the specified baseline value will be counting as a true pulse count. Useful for multipoint smoothing of a noisy pulse envelope By selecting the First-peak mode, a pulse will be counted whenever its falling edge lower the specified value from its peak.
