Abstract
This paper describes some of the system features of a large array of instrumentation to be used for data collection in an experiment utilizing multi-wire proportional chambers (MWPC) of both the amplifierper-wire and the delay-line types. The system is designed to uniquely meet special functional requirements for background reduction and dead-time reduction in high counting-rate experiments at FERMILAB.
