Measurement of accurate positions, pulse periods and period derivatives is an
essential follow-up to any pulsar survey. The procedures being used to obtain
timing parameters for the pulsars discovered in the Parkes multibeam pulsar
survey are described. Completed solutions have been obtained so far for about
80 pulsars. They show that the survey is preferentially finding pulsars with
higher than average surface dipole magnetic fields. Eight pulsars have been
shown to be members of binary systems and some of the more interesting results
relating to these are presented.Comment: 6 pages, 2 embedded EPS figures, to be published in proceedings of
