WPO016 | Magnet Power Supply Control Mockup for the SPES Project | 66 |
|
||
The Legnaro National Laboratories employs about 100 Magnet Power Supplies (MPSs). The existing control infrastructure is a star architecture with a central coordinator and ethernet/serial multiplexers. In the context of the ongoing SPES project, a new magnet control system is being designed with EPICS [1, 2] based software and low cost embedded hardware. A mockup has been setup as a test stand for validation. The paper reports a description of the prototype, together with first results.
