This paper is about Low Cost Automation. In it is described basic background about Havana Radioastronomical Station. It is showed a Real Time Supervisory and Control System named Astrodata. The system employs Virtual Instruments and Distributed Input Output. Transfer information from sensors to computer it is made by comunication network. Astrodata creates a database for off line data processing. Primary processing of data is made on line by system.
