Group<br />

Channel<br />

Scope: Burst signal display<br />

The System monitor window is opened by right-clicking on the <strong>BSA</strong><br />

Application icon in the project explorer, or by right-clicking anywhere in the<br />

<strong>BSA</strong> Application window, <strong>and</strong> selecting System monitor from the drop<br />

down list. The example above is for a 1-channel LDA setup.<br />

Samples shows the number of acquired samples. During acquisition, this is<br />

updated on-line. Full scale corresponds to the value of the Max. samples<br />

property under Group.<br />

Acq. Time shows the elapsed acquisition time, updated on-line. Full scale<br />

corresponds to the value of the Max. acquisition time property under Group.<br />

Data rate shows the number of validated bursts per second, on a logarithmic<br />

scale.<br />

Validation shows the ratio 100% * Valid Bursts / (Valid Bursts + Invalid<br />

Bursts).<br />

Spherical validation (only <strong>BSA</strong> P processors): shows the ratio 100% *<br />

Valid Diameter Samples / Valid Bursts.<br />

Anode current shows the mean photo-multiplier output current. The scale is<br />

fixed with 3 mA as maximum.<br />

High voltage shows the high voltage supplied to the photo-multiplier. The<br />

<strong>BSA</strong> has built-in protection of the photo-multipliers: if the anode current<br />

exceeds a predefined limit, the high voltage is reduced until the anode<br />

current is below the limit. The scale is fixed with 2000 V as maximum.<br />

Sync. Inputs: If SYNC1 <strong>and</strong> SYNC2 inputs are defined (see Chapter 6 –<br />

Synchronisation Option), the synchronisation pulse rates are shown as bar<br />

graphs.<br />

For each type of bar graph (except Sync. Inputs), one bar is shown per<br />

coincidence group (see section 0).<br />

The value shown in the bar graph can be shown numerically by rightclicking<br />

on the bar graph.<br />

The displays are triggered by the <strong>BSA</strong>’s burst detectors. See section 0 for<br />

details about the trigger source selection, <strong>and</strong> section 0 about zooming in on<br />

the burst signals.<br />

The Burst signal display (Figure 5-15 <strong>and</strong> Figure 5-16) is tool for<br />

monitoring the Doppler burst signals during set-up <strong>and</strong> optimisation of the<br />

processor, optics <strong>and</strong> seeding, <strong>and</strong> for estimating the required record interval.<br />
