Abstract :
This system handles data from each Proportional Wire Chamber in parallel, forms computer words containing wire addresses. This data is transmitted bit serially at 10MHz to a CAMAC Module containing 16 words of storage. Double event resolution is less than 10¿sec. Arithmetic logic can be performed for geometrical reconstruction of particle tracks.
