@liji_jordan, welcome aboard!

We would like to help you here and it’s a nice looking sensor, but have you got some more detail about it?
Model numbers, datasheet links, any info for English reading people?

@ScruffR thanks for your reply. there is not any english directions.
but i know it have the BNC (Q9) connector. i do not know how to connect it with my spark core.

You could have a look here

While it suggests to use their shield, I don’t see it compulsory to use it, as long you’re able to provide a suitable BNC connection any other way.

I also see a similar product here, which has schematics and Arduino code:
