Method and apparatus for sensing and acquiring radiation data comprises sensing radiation events with a multi-modality detector. A semicircular reflection mirror aligned around a flash lamp installed in a body and a light filter section is aligned around the reflection mirror while forming a predetermined space therebetween. A first connector is positioned on a first end of the housing and operably connected to the number of lithium-ion cells. To create or generate a massage program to be performed by the controllerseat, an operator drags-and-drops the pictograms on the display to respective positions in the coordinate system, thereby adjusting respective settings of two parameters of the massage function, the coordinate of the pictograms in each coordinate axis corresponding to one of the respective parameters. The alignment guides can be, for example, electrically insulative posts that are received in silos formed in the housings of the electrical connectors. A microprocessing unit generates for each gaming machine an icon having variable visual indicia indicative of a value of the parameter being monitored.
