On September 22, 1985, a hard X-ray observation of Cyg X-1 was performed by using a balloon-borne CsI-NaI phoswich telescope HAPI-2 at Xianghe Balloon Facility in China. The main detector is CsI(T1) with a thickness of 0.4cm and an area of 140cm2. The energy range is 20–200KeV. The telescope reached a float altitude of about 38Km(4g/cm2). The photon's arrival time and energy loss spectrum were measured for both background and active tracking on-source observations.
