  • Abstract
    Traditionally, Fermilab fixed target experiments have read their CAMAC data into PDP-11 computers. They have used the VAX software to perform calibration and monitoring tasks on the experiment. At Fermilab we have modified the . Jorway-411 such that two interfaces may access (share) the same CAMAC branch. The new generationi of experiments will read data from several sub-systems into a MicroVax or VAX for logging to tape. The software reported in this paper allows them to read CAMAC data directly into the data stream on such systems.
