Project number: 197 (number in database). Original project name: Scintillate App. Development type or programming language: Pascal. Platform designed for/with: Mac. Year of most recent major modification: 1989.
This is a Think Pascal program which interfaces with a scientific instrument called a scintillation counter. The program controls the counter and retrieves the data it produces (over a serial link). It then processes the data and creates a file which is imported into a database for storage and further processing.
