AB - The OPERA experiment searches for muon neutrino to tau neutrino oscillations in an almost pure muon neutrino beam. The goal is to observe the oscillations in appearance mode by using a large-scale lead/emulsion target to resolve individual tau neutrino interactions. Magnetic spectrometers measure the charge and momentum of beam induced muons leaving the target sections. The Precision Tracker, a drift tube detector consisting of almost 10000 drift tubes, provides the tracking information inside the spectrometers. The coordinate measurement in the drift tubes is derived from a time measurement relative to an external trigger signal. In order to reach the required momentum resolution of less than 25
