Lynx II Genie 2000 Acquisition Window Adjust
Lynx II DSA User's Manual – 7096089 57
MCS Parameters
The MCS controls are accessible only from an MCS datasource. The datasource type is
defined during the MID Editor or MID Wizard session by selecting MCA Number 2 for
MCS.
Only MCS setting adjustments are available for the MCS datasource. A PHA datasource
for the device must be opened if adjustments to the Stabilizer, High Voltage, Gain, or
Filter are required.
The MCS settings screen for the Lynx II contain the following controls.
Figure 29 Adjust Screen’s MCS Settings
Dwell Range
Sets the units for the dwell time value. The unit's selection can be set to microseconds,
milliseconds, or seconds.
Dwell Value
Sets the dwell time value (in units specified by the Dwell Range control). The Lynx II
supports a dwell value ranging from 1 microsecond to 999 seconds in increments of 1 unit
depending on the selected range.
Disc. Mode
The Discriminator Mode control establishes the input signal to the MCS Acquisition Unit.
• Selecting FDisc enables the MCS’s “fast discriminator mode” where all incoming
events above the Fast Discriminator threshold are counted. This mode is equivalent
to counting the ICR Value reported through the Status page for the selected dwell
time.
• Selecting TTL enables the MCS’s “TTL mode” where all TTL events received
through the rear panel’s MCS input are counted for the selected dwell time.
• Selecting ROI enables the “ROI discrimination mode”, meaning that all incoming
events processed by the DSP that fall within the selected discrimination window are
counted for the selected dwell time.
