Designed for both laboratory and field use, this one compact unit contains a high-voltage power supply (HVPS), preamplifier and a full-featured digital MCA.
The Osprey® unit is a high-performance, fully-integrated multi-channel analyzer (MCA) tube base that contains everything needed to support scintillation spectrometry. Designed for both laboratory and field use, this one compact unit contains a high-voltage power supply (HVPS), preamplifier and a full-featured digital MCA. The Osprey digital MCA can be controlled through either USB or Ethernet with no need to purchase two separate units – an industry first. USB or Ethernet, there is only one cable connecting the Osprey digital MCA to the control and data acquisition system.
For desk-top applications, power and all communications are handled by a USB 2.0 port. In situations where networking and/or remote access are desired, the Ethernet 10/100BaseTX port can be used which provides power and communications via power-over-Ethernet (PoE). An example of using the Osprey unit’s networking capabilities is setting up a radiation monitoring system with multiple unattended detectors in remote locations. (Ethernet can also be used in desk-top applications instead of USB if needed.) Coupled with the powerful Genie 2000 software suite, the Osprey digital MCA takes scintillation spectrometry to a new level. Just connect probe and Osprey unit, connect the Osprey digital MCA to an available USB or Ethernet port, start the Genie 2000 software, and you are ready to acquire the spectrum, making this a true “plug-and-play” solution.
The Genie 2000 software suite is a comprehensive environment for MCA control, data acquisition, display, and analysis. It provides independent support for multiple detectors, extensive networking capabilities, advanced data analysis, and comprehensive batch procedure capabilities. With the Genie 2000 programming libraries, the advanced user can develop custom applications using all available Genie 2000 features and user interfaces. An OS independent software development kit (SDK) with examples is available and can be used without Genie 2000 software. The SDK is similar to the comprehensive set of programming tools available with the Mirion Lynx® MCA. It allows expert users to develop platform independent applications for instrument control and data acquisition.
In addition, a diagnostic web graphical user interface (GUI) application is supplied with the Osprey unit, providing MCA and probe status information, network setup, and firmware upgrade functionalities.
