Software operation
Never disconnect the MPPC from the PC while the software is running. If disconnected,
trouble might occur on the Windows system.
【Starting the software】
Connect the MPPC to the PC using the USB cable.
Double-click the
short-cut icon created on the desktop, or from the [Start] menu select [All
Programs] → [Hamamatsu MPPC Module] → [Software] → [Evaluation].
The "Select MPPC Module" dialog box first appears. From the drop-down list, select the MPPC
module to be used, and then click [Select]. (Figure A)

When the "Option" dialog box appears, select the operating conditions from the "Gate Time [ms]"
and "Threshold Level" drop-down lists. The gate time can be selected from 7 different settings (1 /
2 / 5 / 10 / 20 / 50 / 100 ms). The threshold level can be selected from 5 different settings (0.5 p.e.
/ 1.5 p.e. / 2.5 p.e. / 3.5 p.e. / Disable). After selecting the conditions, click [Update] (see Figure B).
The dialog box closes and the software screen then appears (see Figure C). You are now ready to
start measurements.
If "Disable" is selected for the threshold level, no data can be acquired. Select this setting only
when using the analog signal output from the MPPC module.
