Abstract
The method of operation of the spectrograph - MARS - is described. The limitations of the triggering system, and of the method of storage of data from the flash-tubes are discussed. The momentum selector incorporated in the spectrograph is considered in detail, and it is shown that there is no rejection of events by the device due to the production of bursts in the iron blocks or to air showers incident upon the apparatus. The events are also considered by equipment which, if the data in the event is suitable, calculates the deflection of the particle traversing the spectrograph using the information available from the momentum selector.
