Abstract: The Radio Experiment for the Analysis of Cosmic Hydrogen (REACH) is a sky-averaged 21-cm experiment consisting of an ultra-wideband spectrometer that aims to improve current observations through in-field calibration of the receiver and by using a novel Bayesian data analysis system to fully parameterise the signal, foregrounds and instrument noise. The system is currently in the final stages of assembly and will be deployed on site in the first half of 2023. This paper focuses on the digital backend and management software of REACH, providing a description of the receiver and digital hardware, signal processing chain, and supporting instrument and observation management software.
