COMPUTER ACQUISITION SYSTEM, MODEL 1591

Abstract

THE Model 1591 Computer Acquisition System (CASY) accepts data in the form of three parallel words (X, Y, and H) from either a Remington Rand 1103A of IBM 7090 Computer. Upon completion of the data acquisition the data is transmitted in serial form over telephone voice lines in a format compatible with a MEC Model 1522-R Data Receiver. The CASY is capable, with manual programming, of various modes of operation with either computer. Internally generated test inputs along with visual indicators allow self-checking of the system with a minimum of effort and external equipment. When not operating in conjunction with a computer, noninterference with external equipment is assured. Modular type of construction allows extreme versatility and ease of maintenance. (Author)
