Abstract
A description of a monitoring system consisting of semiconductor detectors designed to detect π− mesons stops in various targets is presented. It is shown that setting thresholds for energy release in monitors and using a silicon detector as an active target makes it possible to achieve an accuracy of 5 and 6.5% in determining the number of pion stops, respectively, for active and conventional targets.
