Abstract
The control and data-acquisition system of the СПРУТ-VI instrument package mounted on board the Mir space station in 1999 is described. The system was based on two onboard microcomputers installed both inside and outside a pressurized compartment. The system unified the operation of various sets of equipment (radiation monitoring, radiometric, wave, materials science, and magnetic) and allowed the transfer of large data arrays from detectors located on the outer surface of the station. It was possible to reprogram the entire system under space flight conditions. An off-line data-recording unit, which was later brought back to Earth, was used.
