Averager System for the Classic LINC

This document provides a comprehensive guide for the 'Averager' system, a suite of programs designed for the classic LINC computer. Developed by the Biomedical Computing Division at the University of Wisconsin, the system includes three core programs—AVERAGER, LATAMP, and AVELIST—that facilitate data acquisition, latency histogram generation, and waveform analysis. Key features include:

• AVERAGER: Supports simultaneous one-input or two-input signal averaging, latency histogram generation, and plotting capabilities for LINC data tapes.
• LATAMP: A diagnostic and analysis tool for measuring specific latencies and amplitudes from averaged data.
• AVELIST: Provides a utility to list and verify data blocks stored on LINC data tapes.

The manual details operational procedures, setup parameters (including sweep time and trigger modes), calibration methods for analog inputs, and technical design specifications for integrating the programs within the LAP6 operating environment.
