  New control and monitoring system for Nuclotron main power supplies was designed in order to substantially extend functionality of the existing equipment and software. The lattice bending (BM), focusing (QF) and defocusing (QD) magnets are powered by two supplies. The BM magnetic field shape is set by pulse function generator that produces a reference burst (Bo-train) with 0.1 Gs resolution. This train controls pattern analog function generator based on a 18-bit DAC. A real B-train from the reference magnet and corresponding analog function are used for feedback loop. The current magnetic field of BM is used as reference function for the focusing and defocusing magnets. A scaling 16-bit multiplied DAC is used to set required ratio IBM/IQFD during accelerator cycle. A 16-bit data acquisition card provides measurement of all analog signals. Digital I/O boards are applied to set and read status of the power supplies, accompanying subsystems and interlocks. Timing modules provide the trigger pulses both for the system internal needs and for synchronizing of the accelerator subsystems and experimental setups.
