The data acquisition available at the Laboratory for Detector Science is modeled after the Cebaf Online Data Acquisition (CODA) system. The system involves a single board computer controlling a VME backplane (Readout Controller) which transfers digitized data from the VME backplane to a Host Computer. The Readout Controller (ROC) runs the VxWorks operating system and the host computer runs the CentOS ( free Red Hat) operating system. Libraries to control the VME modules are cross-compiled on the Host computer and then downloaded to the ROC by software running on the host computer know as "RunControl".
