	The control system for the FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) accelerator facility is presently under development and implementation. The FAIR accelerators will extend the present GSI accelerator chain, then being used as injector, and provide anti-proton, ion, and rare isotope beams with unprecedented intensity and quality for a variety of research programs. This paper shortly summarizes the general status of the FAIR project and focusses on the progress of the control system design and its implementation. The poster presents the general system architecture and updates on the status of major building blocks of the control system. We highlight the control system implementation efforts for CRYRING, a new accelerator presently under recommissioning at GSI, which will serve as a test-ground for the complete control system stack and evaluation of the new controls concepts.

WPO007	The FAIR R³B Prototype Cryogenics Control System	46

	Funding: GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung The superconducting GLAD magnet is one of the major parts for the R3B experiment at FAIR. R³B stands for Reactions with Relativistic Radioactive Beams. The cryogenic operation will be ensured by a fully refurbished TCF 50 cold box and oil removal system. One of the major design goals for its control system is to operate as independent as possible from magnet controls acting as a first prototype for the later cryogenic installations in the FAIR facility. The operation of the compressor, oil removal system, and the gas management was tested in Jan. 2014. We have followed a staged implementation of the controls, firstly implementing all processes in a S7-319F with PROFIBUS and PROFINET I/O modules using WinCC OA as SCADA. In a second step a migration and implementation into the CERN UNICOS framework will be done for the first time at GSI. This can be seen as preparatory work for novel industrial control systems to be established for the FAIR facility. Within late spring 2014 a first cool down of the refurbished cold box is foreseen. Once the magnet will be delivered, the magnet and the cryogenics controls will be commissioned together.
