  • Single / multiple decay curve mode (wavelength, time/user def.)
  • Multichannel X-Y-t-Mode
  • Direct interface to most detector types
  • Scan clock trigger input
  • Real-time calculation and fitting of FCS curves
  • Optional stepper motor controller for wavelength or sample scanning
  • Optional detector controller module
  • Optional galvo controller module

Selected module information is available below. See our catalog for additional solutions.
