#### GFT2005 | 5 Channel Time Interval Meter

The GFT2005 is a very precise Time Interval Meter. It has five channels: Channel 0 is used as the “Start” time reference for channels 1-4 being “Stops” events of the Time Interval measurement. Each channel can measure the time of the rising edge of one electrical input, to 13 picosecond resolution with > 100 second range. Time Interval samples can be automatically processed to provide Mean, Max, Min and RMS/Jitter.

- Uses an internal 10 MHz oscillator or an external very stable 10 MHz source.
- Offers 4 GPIO (digital bi-directional signals) under software control for communication to external equipment.
- Is a low profile 19″, 1U rack instrument with Ethernet interface.
- Has a built in Web server that provide an easy remote control via a standard Web Browser.

**“Control panel Web page” from embedded web server provide an easy method to:**

- Configure settings for each channel and Control operation and status of the instrument.
- View the measurements (value and graphic form).
- Save the measurement in your file computer.
