Easy-MCA 2k or 8k Channel Multichannel Analyzer

"Does Your New PC No Longer Support Plug-in MCA Cards?"

Now an Inexpensive Solution Using the Latest USB Technology!

• Compact stand-alone MCA

• Two available versions in 2k or 8k resolution

• Fast (<2µs) conversion time

• Includes Dead-Time Correction Logic Inputs (Busy and PUR)

• Gate Input Provided

• The easy to use and powerful MAESTRO-32 software is included

• Fast, convenient USB2 connectivity

• Advanced Analysis Software Options Simplified EASY-MCA Block Diagram.

EASY-MCA interfaces to a PC via a USB2 cable. This compact MCA is stackable and portable, and no PC option slots are needed. Each EASY-MCA has memory capable of holding the complete spectrum.You have the option of 2k-channels of resolution which can be switched to 1k- or 0.5k-channels or 8k channels of resolution which can be switched to 4k-, 2k-, 1k-, or 0.5k-channels.

EASY-MCA will accept inputs from a shaping amplifier for Pulse Height Analysis (PHA). In addition to the Input signal, EASY-MCA accepts an ADC GATE input, a (Pile-Up Rejection input (PUR), and a BUSY input used by the live-time correction circuits. A single computer subject to USB-2.0 speed of data transfer can control multiple units using USB ports or a powered USB hub.

MAESTRO-32 MCA Emulation Software

EASY-MCA operates with ORTEC MAESTRO-32 software.

MAESTRO-32 utilizes the Windows 2000/XP Professional or VISTA operating systems, dialog protocols using the latest Windows standards, and on-online and context-sensitive help. MAESTRO-32 uses the common Windows Explorer dialogs for importing and exporting files. No advanced training or programming skills are required.

MAESTRO-32 is a CONNECTIONS-32 product, providing industry leading advanced connectivity features within the Windows Network environment.You can control any networked ORTEC instrument from a single PC over your existing Ethernet.

• Real-Time Emulation for Gamma and Alpha Spectroscopy

• Multi-Detector Interface

• Seamless Networking for Remote Detectors Systems

• Secure Data with Personal Password Protection

• Advance Peak Analysis Features

• Complete Interactive Control of all MCB Hardware Features

Experience the MAESTRO advantage for yourself. This time tested software gives full control of the data to the user with the latest features. The new Multiple Detector Interface allows viewing up to 8 detectors and 8 buffer windows simultaneously for a total of 16 interactive windows. Controlling multiple detectors, visually comparing spectra, and viewing multiple MCB properties is now easier than ever. This new interface also allows maximizing sample throughput in your lab.You can begin acquisitions of multiple samples or select one detector at a time. Synchronizing data acquisition on multiple detectors simultaneously is now achievable.

• Microsoft Windows GUI (Graphic User Interface) for control and spectrum      manipulation using the mouse or keyboard

• Multi-Detector Interface (MDI)

• Single key or mouse button for:
  Setting/deleting ROIs
  Indexing to next ROI
  Indexing to next peak
  Indexing to next library energy

• Logarithmic and auto-scaling-linear vertical display

• True live display on any mix of MCBs

• Identical operation for local MCBs and remote MCBs

Advanced Features of MAESTRO-32 Add Real Value

• Mariscotti fast peak search, with nuclide identification by library lookup

• Activity, net and gross areas (with uncertainty), centroid and shape for peaks

• Data protection with “detector locking” by name, not by workstation

• Comprehensive JOB STREAMING

• Integrated Local Area Network (LAN) support
