  For the 230MeV superconducting cyclotron, once again, the differential radial probe has been proven to be crucial for the beam commission procedure. It can provide various information about the particles inside the cyclotron, such as the vertical position, the relative intensity as well as the oscillation frequency and radius, etc. In practice, however, the electronics system suffered from the leaking alternating RF field as well as the static magnetic field. Besides the EM shielding, an absorptive high-frequency filter has been included as the first element of the readout electronics. A high dynamic range readout electronic unit has been included to adapt to the fluctuation of the beam in the hole commissioning phase. The electronics box is designed as a network-attached embedded device so that it can be powered by a POE switch and transmits measurement results via MODBUS protocol. A dedicated digital signal processor and calibration units are also included, together with the ADCs, to facilitate the daily calibration process. The same electronics are used for the beamline wire scan system to determine the position of the beam, with a small improvement at a lower range. The design of this multi-purpose beam diagnostics electronics will be reviewed in this paper, together with several measurement results.
