We present a modified direct demodulation (DD) method for the detection of fast variable objects with the Insight-HXMT Galactic plane survey, which is dedicated to hunting for new transients and monitoring known variable sources. The novelty of the improved DD method is the reconstruction of the modified response matrix, in which the variability of a source is properly handled. Monte Carlo (MC) simulation results demonstrate its power for the detection of variable sources with different time scales, resulting in more accurate location and precise flux monitoring. The application of the method to the Insight-HXMT Galactic plane survey data reveals that the type-II bursts can be well detected for the Rapid Burster MXB 1730–335, with an average rate of 2 bursts min− 1 in a manner of the well-known relaxation oscillation.
