Sumario:<HTML> <HEAD> <h2>Abstract</h2> </HEAD> <P> <BODY> <P> A TOF spectrometer system based on a tower of 20 Pestov counters with a new, very compact electronic time measurement and read-out system was installed in the NA49 experiment. During the run in November 1999, about 200k Pb-Pb collisions were recorded. For the first time, the electronic system included 640 timing channels based on High Resolution TDC chips. The electronic, as well as the counter time resolution, estimated 'on-line' were 40ps and 50ps, respectively, agreeing well with the values measured at laboratory conditions. </BODY> </HTML>
