 Q2  "Connection error" dialog box is displayed when starting the attached application, and the computer and the device can not be connected.
 A2  Please refer to "Ethernet".
Top
 Q3  Does it support USB 3.0?
 A3  Connection and use with the USB 3.0 port are available. However, the communication speed is USB 2.0 specification.
Top
 Q4  Do you offer sample programs?
 A4  No there is not. APG7400A USB-MCA4 which is a high - end model has its function. Please download from this page and use it. The development language is Visual C ++, Visual C #, Linux, LabVIEW.

 Q5  Does this product have a Multi Channel Scaler (MCS) function?
 A5  No there is not. APG7400A USB-MCA4 which is a high - end model has its function.

 Q6  Does this product have a Coincidence function?
 A6  No there is not. APG7400A USB-MCA4 which is a high - end model has its function.

 Q7  Is there a dead time? How much is that?
 A7  Yes, The dead time is a time period when MCA can not measure peak value. New events can not be measured while events occur irregularly, such as radiation, while events are being detected, peak detection, digitization of wave height values, memory rewriting, resetting of crest value. The dead time of this device is fixed 500 ns.

 Q8  Does this product have a GATE function?
 A8  Yes. To acquire event data at that time according to external conditions when an event occurs, input the LV - TTL level signal to the "GATE" LEMO connector on the front panel. It is measured when it is High, but it is not measured when it is Low.
Top
 Q9  Does this product have a VETO function?
 A9  Yes. If you want to discard event data at that time due to external conditions at the occurrence of an event, input the LV - TTL level signal to the "VETO" LEMO connector on the front panel. This has the opposite effect to "GATE". Measurement is performed when it is Low, but not when it is Low. The timing is the same as GATE mentioned above.

 Q10  Can I reset the time information externally during measurement?
 A10  No, it does not correspond.
Top
 Q11  How can I connect the cable with BNC connector from the detector to the USB-MCA?
 A11  Signal input connector to this device is "EPL.00.250.NTN" made by LEMO or its equivalent shape.
