By introducing software timing technique, the minimum time base of factory setting improves from 0.1 s to 0.03 s. The timing counts performance and longtime stability are also discussed in detail. The automatic data recording and saving facilitates data analysis and processing. Its real-time display and statistic function is very convenient for monitoring the nuclear radiation.展开更多
