  The magnet system of the steady-state superconducting tokamak-1 at the Institute for Plasma Research, Gandhinagar, India, consists of sixteen Toroidal field and nine poloidal field Superconducting coils together with a pair of resistive PF coils, an air core ohmic transformer and a pair of vertical field coils. These coils are instrumented with various cryogenic grade sensors and voltage taps to monitor it's operating status and health during different operational scenarios. A VME based data acquisition system with remote system architecture is implemented for data acquisition and control of the complete magnet operation. Client-Server based architecture is implemented with remote hardware configuration and continuous online/ offline monitoring. A JAVA based platform independent client application is developed for data analysis and data plotting. The server has multiple data pipeline architecture to send data to storage database, online plotting application, Numerical display screen, and run time calculation. This paper describes software architecture, design and implementation of the data acquisition system.
