  The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) beamline Equipment Protection System (EPS) delivers a general solution for dealing with various beamline components and requirements. All IOs are monitored and controlled by Allen Bradley PLC. EPICS application and CSS panels provide high level monitoring and control.

  Asynchronous data acquisition at the Inner-Shell Spectroscopy beamline at NSLS-II is performed using custom FPGA based I/O devices ("pizza-boxes"), which store and time stamp data using GPS based clock {*}. During motor scans, Incremental encoder signals corresponding to motion as well as analog detector signals are stored using EPICS IOCs. As each input creates a file with different timestamps, the data is first interpolated onto a common time grid. The energy scans are performed by a direct-drive monochromator, controlled with a Power PMAC controller. The motion is programmed to follow the trajectory with speed profiles corresponding to desired data density. The "pizza-boxes" that read analog signals are typically set to oversample the data stream, digitally improving the ADC resolution. Then the data is binned onto a energy grid with data spacing driven by desired point spacing. In order to organize everything in an easy-to-use platform, we developed XLive, a Python based GUI application. It can be used from the pre-experiment preparation to the data visualization and exporting, including beamline tuning and data acquisition.
