| Abstract | The system employs a simple, but versatile CAMAC crate controller. Capability for connection to coinputcrs is included, and the system has been interfaced to several different computers. The system is organized around a master control unit which generates sequential CAMAC addresses and sends them onto a CAMAC bus; the returning parallel binary data is converted to BCD data and sent together with BCD channel addresses onto a BCD bus. In this way both data inputs (scalers and crates) and readouts (or data processors) can be expanded in modular fashion. Q-scan control is used; that is, the Q response from the addressed module controls the CAMAC address generator and is used to decide if the data should be converted and sent to the BCD bus or the CAMAC address advanced to the next module. |
