Abstract
A system is described whereby a single-circle powder diffractometer is controlled by means of a punched paper tape program. An ASR33 teletype machine is used for both the input and output of data, the output being in a form directly suitable for further computer analysis. It is shown that by developing a hardware control system specifically for this task considerable increase in efficiency can be achieved for a relatively low cost.
