The LeCroy Model 4608C Operator's Manual provides detailed instructions for the setup, operation, and troubleshooting of the 8-channel NIM discriminator, including guidance on installation, power requirements, and cooling needs. It also describes the unit's features such as selectable operation modes, adjustable output widths, and input characteristics, while offering support for maintenance and addressing any discrepancies in documentation.
Overview
The LeCroy Model 4608C is an eight-channel discriminator module designed for use in NIM systems. It features selectable Updating or Burst Guard operation and includes VETO and TEST inputs common to all channels. The module provides three NIM bridged outputs and one complementary output per channel, with adjustable output widths ranging from 3.5 nsec to 100 nsec. Individual thresholds can be set using front-panel potentiometers, with a range from -15 mV to -1 V, allowing for the use of lower gain photomultipliers and longer cable lengths. The high density of the module is achieved through the use of hybrid circuits, with two discriminator channels contained in a single HVL210 hybrid.
Specifications
Signal Inputs: eight inputs via Lemo front-panel connectors, 50 Ω +2%, protected to +5 A for 0.5 μsec, clamping at +5

Installation / Setup
The installation/setup highlights for the Model 4608C 8-Channel NIM Discriminator include the following key points:
1. Cooling: The device requires adequate cooling due to high power dissipation. It is recommended to use a NIM bin fan to keep the exhaust air temperature below 50°C.
2. Power Requirement: The 4608C draws significant power from the -6 NIM power line. Ensure the NIM bin can supply sufficient current, particularly if multiple units are used.
3. Installation: It is advised to turn off the NIM bin power when inserting or removing modules to prevent potential damage from momentary contact misalignment.
