Word length — 43 binary places (from them — 35 bits on a mantissa and 6 on the exhibitor). A read-only memory on semiconductor diodes. The external memory — two tape devices. Data entry — from punched cards and from the magnetic tape. Data output — on the magnetic tape, on punched cards and on the large-format printer.
The last Arrows option used memory on the magnetic drum (4096 words) rotating with a speed of 6000 RPM.
