Thanks for the replies.
I had been looking at the SIS3820 and will probably go with it.

Also, Hytec makes a couple of IndustryPack scaler cards:

They supply code for using these cards with the EPICS scaler record.
I haven't tried this.

Joerger Enterprises stopped responding to requests for purchases a few
years ago.  Alternative scalers exist in the EPICS community.  Here are
tech-talk references to three alternatives, each in current use at APS
beam lines.

Hello,
Does anyone have any information regarding the current status of Joerger
Enterprises Inc. I had hoped to buy some more VSC16 VME scalers. Nobody
is answering the phone and e-mails bounce. Perhaps Fred has retired. Are
there any other currently available scalers that will work with the
scaler record.

Thanks
Graham waters.
