The CRA-100 is a free running counter/timer continuously updating a Digital to
Analog Converter [DAC] after each time base period. The major difference between
the CRA-100 and a conventional rate meter is that while the conventional rate
meter?s output reads counts per second [CPS] the CRA-100 outputs an analog
signal representing counts per selected time base. Only the one (1) second time
base will produce voltage directly corresponding to CPS. This time base will
produce the 10 V output for 1024 CPS at the 10 bit range or 16,384 CPS for the
14 bit range. The other time bases will produce an analog output proportional to
the input?s count rate.
An overload indicator lights up every time the maximum count is reached to warn
the user that the analog output reached it?s limit and the time base needs to be
reduced.
