Abstract The Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerating System (ATLAS) facility at Argonne National Laboratory is researching ways at avoiding a crisis caused by the end-of-life issues with its 30 year-old CAMAC system. Replacement parts for CAMAC have long since been unavailable causing the potential for long periods of accelerator down times once the limited CAMAC spares are exhausted. ATLAS has recently upgraded the Ethernet in the facility from a 100-Mbps (max) to a 1-Gbps network. Therefore, an Ethernet-based data acquisition system is desirable. The data acquisition replacement requires reliability, speed, and longevity to be a viable upgrade to the facility. In addition, the transition from CAMAC to a modern data acquisition system will be done with minimal interruption of operations.
