| INPUTS | | | | |
| Signal | NIM into 50 ohm | Differential ECL (TTL factory option) | Differential ECL | |
| Clear | NIM -500 mV, ³ 50 nsec clears all channels within 1 µsec or via CAMAC command | NIM (TTL) > 20 nsec, will disable inputs for 100 nsec and clear scalers or via CAMAC command | 2 nsec settling time after command, -600 mV, > 5 nsec | |
| Inhibit/Veto/Gate | > 5 nsec must precede input by 10 nsec or via CAMAC inhibit, -500 mV | NIM (TTL) pulse or via CAMAC inhibit must completely overlap inputs | NIM -600 mV, > 3 nsec or via CAMAC inhibit | |
