  There is a need for a flexible stand-alone device that can be a base platform for a distributed control system. It will need to support a core functionality such as; high-resolution timestamping, standardised software API’s and a well defined expansion card interface. We are proposing the Chameleon device that will be designed around a Xilinx Zynq System on Module (SoM) and include a standard VITA 57.1 HPC FMC for application specific functionality. The proposed solution will allow the use of COTS or in-house designed FMC modules and integrate to the control system through a PoE+ interface, allowing both power and communication through the same cable. The Chameleon device is also intended to be plugged into a White Rabbit network to utilise the high performance synchronisation capabilities and timestamping as needed. This device will reduce the cost of implementing application specific solutions, across the accelerator and beamlines, to better support the growing demands of scientific research at the Australian Synchrotron - ANSTO.
