## Description

    This component is a time sensitive monitor which calculates the cross
    correlation between the pseudo random sequence of a statistical chopper
    and the signal received. It mainly uses fonctions of component Monitor_nD.
    It is possible to use the various options of the Monitor_nD but the user MUST NOT
    specify "time" in the options. Auto detection of the time limits is possible if the
    user chooses tmin=>tmax.

    StatisticalChopper_Monitor(options ="banana bins=500, abs theta limits=[5,105],bins=1000")

## Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
