The radial velocity differences for about 256 thousand targets are larger than 10km/s and they are possible spectroscopic binary or variable candidates (SBVCs). It is shown that most SBVCs are slightly metal poorer than the Sun. There are two peaks in the temperature distribution of SBVCs around 5760K and 4870K, while there are three peaks in the distribution of the gravitational acceleration at 2.461, 4.171 and 4.621cm/s2. The locations of SBVCs on the [Fe/H]-T, [Fe/H]-logg, logg-T and H-R diagrams are investigated. It is found that the detected SBVCs could be classified into four groups. The first group has higher logg∼4.621 and lower T∼4870K which are mainly cool red dwarf binaries. The second group of SBVCs has logg around 4.171cm/s2 that includes binaries and pulsating stars such as δ Sct and γ Dor variables. The gravitational accelerations of the third group of SBVCs are higher and some of them are below the zero-age main sequence. They may be contact binaries in which the primary components are losing energy to the secondaries in the common envelopes and are at a special stellar evolutionary stage. The last group is composed of giants or supergiants with logg around 2.461cm/s2 that may be evolved pulsating stars. One target (C134624.29+333921.2) is confirmed as an eclipsing binary with a period of 0.65-days. A preliminary analysis suggests that it is a detached binary with a mass ratio of 0.46. The primary fills its critical Roche lobe by about 89%, indicating that mass transfer will occur between the two components. Description: The stellar atmospheric parameters of the first 390 SBVCs are shown in Table 1.
