+## Functional Differences Between Models
+
+The 2nd Generation DAQ offers some additional features that aren't available on the
+older EL737 Counterboxes. Specifically,
+
+* the possibility to change the channel monitored by the count-based preset (on
+  the older EL737 boxes, only the 1st channel can be used)
+* two gating inputs, that enable counting to be halted via configurable
+  high/low electrical inputs.
+* a test signal generator
+
+Furthermore, the 2nd Generation DAQ's have 10 input channels, in place of the 8
+or 4 channels on the older EL737 Counterboxes.
