Scientific paper

The Phoswich Detection System (PDS) is the high-energy (15 - 300 keV) instrument on board the Italian Dutch X-ray astronomy satellite SAX. Functional tests were carried on. Full ground calibrations have been performed. The authors describe the system that they used to acquire and analyse the data coming from the PDS experiment during the ground tests and calibrations. They give a detailed description of the entire system, including the hardware and software developed by Laben to acquire data during on-ground tests. A complete description of the different modules, user interface, inter-process communications, analysis and display tools are presented. The current status of the project is discussed.
