About
MIDAS is a modern data acquisition system developed at PSI and TRIUMF. Supported hardware includes VME, Fastbus, CAMAC, RS232, GPIB, USB, ethernet, fiber optic and MSCB attached data acquisition devices. MIDAS is written in C/C++ and runs on Linux, MacOS and MS Windows. It is licensed under the GPL.
On August 2013, the complete MIDAS documentation has been moved to TRIUMF for consistency and can be accessed via http://midas.triumf.ca. Only a (very historic) introduction is still accessible at PSI.
