| Abstract: | A data acquisition and analysis facility based on a VAX 11/750 computer interfaced to a CAMAC crate via a MBD-11 Branch Driver is described. Factors influencing the choice of the system and problems resulting from the specific choices, along with their resolution, are discussed. Finally, some performance figures for the data acquisition software, as well as an example of the type and complexity of the experiments which can be performed with the facility, are provided. |
