The Free Electron Laser (SwissFEL) Injector Test Facility at Paul Scherrer Institute has been in operations for more than three years. The Injector Test Facility machine is a valuable development and validation platform for all major SwissFEL subsystems including controls. Based on the experience gained from the Test Facility operations support, the paper presents current and some perspective controls solutions focusing on the future SwissFEL project.

A modern embedded system for fast systems has to incorporate technologies like multicore CPUs, fast serial links and FPGAs for interfaces and local processing. Those technologies are still relatively new and integrating them in a control system infrastructure that either exists already or has to be planned for long-term maintainability is a challenge that needs to be addressed. At PSI we have, in collaboration with an industrial company (IOxOS SA)[*], built a board and infrastructure around it solving issues like scalability and modularization of systems that are based on FPGAs and the FMC standard, simplicity in taking such a board in operation and re-using parts of the source code base for FPGA. In addition the board has several state-of-the-art features that are typically found in the newer bus systems like MicroTCA, but can still easily be incorporated in our VME64x-based infrastructure. In the presentation we will describe the system architecture, its technical features and how it enables us to effectively develop our different user applications and fast front-end systems.
