OVERVIEW
The C8855-01 is a counting unit with a USB interface and can be
used as a photon counter when combined with a photon counting
head, etc.
The counter of the C8855-01 has two counter circuits (double coun-
ter method) capable of counting input signals with no dead time.
Since the C8855-01 is hot-swap compatible (plug and play compat-
ible), it helps you set up measurement environment quickly. You
can start measurement on the day the C8855-01 is delivered by the
sample software.
• Time-resolved measurement (minimum time resolution:
50 µs) for monitoring weak light detection like chemilu-
minescence or biological clocks
• Quick measurement setups (hot-swap compatible)
You can start measurement by just connecting the USB cable
without restarting the PC, if required software (device driver, etc)
is installed into your PC beforehand.
• Applicable to various measurement methods
The C8855-01 is fully controlled by DLL (dynamic link library) sup-
plied.
User can create own software program, which is adequate for vari-
ous type of user measurement, based on the DLL functions.
