Abstract :
An IBM-1800 computer has been adapted by means of locally designed interfacing and control hardware (including a high-speed analog input mini-computer) and special software to perform for the ST-Machine real-time collection and processing of data and immediate display of results. Feedback thus provided assists in parameter adjustments and overall guidance in the experimental run.
