Datenaufnahme- und Kontrollsystem fuer einen Testaufbau von Vieldraht-Proportionalkammern fuer KASCADE

Large position sensitive multiwire-proportional chambers are used to measure the lateral distribution of muons below a hadron calorimeter at the cosmic ray experiment KASCADE (KArlsruhe Shower Core and Array DEtector). The chambers originally used in the CELLO-experiment have been equipped with new read-out electronics developed for KASCADE. Within a test setup for four chambers a PC based data-acquisition and control system was built up, which allows the test of readout hardware and software, the development of automatic setup procedures for various parameters and the study of influences of environmental conditions.
