The optics and electronics of a new filter magnetograph will be described. The instrument uses a Zeiss 0.13 Å birefringent filter to isolate magnetic sensitive lines. All four Stokes parameters can be measured. A Westinghouse SEC vidicon WX 30 654 serves as the detector. The data are completely digitized and transmitted in real time into a Univac 1108 computer.
