Design and Implementation of Distributed Control System for Pefp 100-mev Proton Accelerator*

چکیده
The remote control systems and user interface for the Proton Engineering Frontier Project (PEFP) 100-MeV proton accelerator have been developed for the linac subsystems. The infrastructure of the PEFP control system is to provide a network based communication, distributed control system, and a standard communication protocol. To develop an extensible and reliable control system, we have chosen Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) as a standard development tool. The EPICS is a distributed architecture that provides several solutions such as independent programming tools for operating system, operator interface tools, and archiving tools. The advantage of EPICS is to support a wide range of solution from small test sites to large integrated facilities. The VME system was adopted as a hardware device of an Input Output Controller (IOC). The IOCs are connected with an Ethernet based control network which is a standard communication protocol for the distributed control systems. In addition, there are other types of networks, such as timing network and interlock network. In this paper, we will present the details for design and implementation of the distributed control system for the PEFP 100-MeV proton accelerator, which is based on distributed control system using EPICS and an integration management of the distributed data.
