  • Abstract
    A new VME-based multi-processor data acquisition station has been developed for use at several LBL Bevalac facilities. This system acquires and manipulates data from multiple CAMAC crates and transmits them via Ethernet to a central VAX facility for taping. Overall architecture is discussed and major hardware and software components are described.
