MOAPL02 | The First Operation of the MAX IV Laboratory Synchrotron Facilities | 6 |
|
||
On 21st of June 2016 the MAX IV Laboratory was inaugurated in the presence of the officials and has welcome the first external researchers to the new experimental stations. The MAX IV facility is the largest and most ambitious Swedish investment in research infrastructure and designed to be one of the brightest source of X-rays worldwide. The current achievements, progress, collaborations and vision of the facility will be described from the perspective of the control and IT systems. | ||

TUMPL08 | MAX IV BioMAX Beamline Control System: From Commissioning Into User Operation | 318 |
|
||
The BioMAX beamline at MAX IV is devoted to macromolecular crystallography and will achieve a high level of experimental automation when its full potential is reached due to the usage of high end instrumentation and comprehensive software environment. The control system is based on Tango and Sardana for managing the main elements of the beamline. Data acquisition and experiment control is done through MXCuBE v3, which interfaces with the control layer. Currently, the most critical elements such as the detector and diffractometer are already integrated into the control system, whereas the integration of the sample changer has already started. BioMAX has received its first users, who successfully collected diffraction data and provided feedback on the general performance of the control system and its usability. The present work describes the main features of the control system and its operation, as well as the next instrument integration plans | ||

TUPHA197 | Control and Data Acquisition Using TANGO and SARDANA at the Nanomax Beamline at MAX IV | 900 |
|
||
The MAX IV synchrotron radiation facility in Lund, Sweden, received its first external commissioning users in November 2016 at the Nanomax hard X-ray beamline. All components of the beamline, including the motorisation, vacuum and diagnostic elements, were integrated into the TANGO-based control system, which through the SARDANA layer also managed the collection of diffraction and fluorescence data from one- and two-dimensional detector channels. Hardware-synchronised continuous scanning (‘‘fly-scanning'') of the sample, mounted on a piezo stage, was achieved using a system built around a standard pulse generator and acquisition board controlled by a dedicated TANGO device. SARDANA macros were used to configure and execute the continuous scanning, and position data from the piezo controller were buffered in synchronization with triggers sent to the detectors, with all data subsequently written to HDF5 files. After successful initial operation, the system is currently being revised and expanded for the users expected in 2018. | ||
