The 24 cell Diamond Storage Ring is 561.6m in circumference and is mounted on 72 support girders, the largest of which are 6m long and weigh 17 Tonnes. Each girder can be remotely positioned in 5 axes using a system of motorised cams. This system has been designed to enable the future remote realignment of the Storage Ring using beam based alignment techniques. The system is described in detail including the mechanical and electrical components of the system as well as a description of the alignment algorithms employed and how these have been incorporated into the control system.

Diamond is a new 3rd generation synchrotron light source currently being commissioned in the UK. The control system for Diamond will be a site-wide monitoring and control system for the accelerators, beamlines and conventional facilities. This paper presents the design and implementation of the Diamond control system, which is based on the EPICS control system toolkit. It will present the detailed choice of hardware and software, the solutions realised for interfacing and control of the major technical systems of Diamond, together with progress on installation and commissioning.

The Diamond timing system is the latest generation development of the design, principles and technologies currently implemented in the Advanced Photon Source and Swiss Light Source timing systems. It provides the ability to generate reference events, distribute them over a fibre-optic network, and decode and process them at the equipment to be controlled. The timing system is closely integrated within the Diamond distributed control system, which is based on EPICS. The Diamond timing system functionality and performance, and first operational experiences in using the timing system during the commissioning of the accelerators, are presented in this paper.
