The Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) superconducting magnet system consists of 16 TF (Toroidal Field) and 14 PF (Poloidal Field) coils. Both of TF and PF coils use internally-cooled conductors. In order to validate the design of the KSTAR TF coil, a full-scale prototype TF coil, TF00, is developed. For the test of TF00, a large scale superconducting magnet and conductor t...

Measurement of high-power proton beam-halo formation is the ongoing scientific experiment for the Low Energy Demonstration Accelerator (LEDA) facility. To attain this measurement goal, a 52-magnet beam line containing several types of beam diagnostic instrumentation is being installed. The Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) and commercial software applications are presen...

Probe: to debug database records. • Alarm handler ALH The current Beijing Electron Position Collider (BEPC) is going to be upgraded to reach a higher energy as 1.89 GeV and a luminosity of 1.0E33cms. A second storage ring will be installed in the same tunnel of BEPC. The control system of BEPCII will be constructed based on EPICS. During the past two years a basic prototype has been set up, inc...

At several National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) beamlines, open source control systems offer a modern solution for cost effectiveness and technical competence. The "Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System" (EPICS) [1] and the "Real-Time Operating System for Multiprocessor Systems" (RTEMS) [2][3] were chosen to constitute the core control system. A RTEMS Board Support Package (BSP...

The control systems for the SPEAR storage ring and injector were designed almost two decades ago and have worked reliably for us. Both systems are heavily dependent on the OpenVMS operating system and CAMAC. The realtime data reside in shared memory on a single computer for each control system. In order to use more modern client tools while preserving our investment in the hardware and software...
