Development of digital beam position monitor for HEPS
94
High Energy Photon Source (HEPS) is a proposed new generation light source with a beam energy of 6 GeV, high brightness, and ultra-low beam emittance. An RF BPM has been designed at IHEP as part of an R&D program to meet the requirements of both the injection system and storage ring. The RF BPM architecture consists of an Analog Front-End (AFE) board and a Digital Front-End board (DFE) based on a custom platform. In this paper, we present the overall architecture of the RF BPM electronics system and the performance evaluation of the BPM processor, including beam current, filling pattern, and position measurement resolution as a function of the beam current.

High performance generic beam diagnostic signal processor for SHINE
396
A generic signal processor has been developed for beam diagnostic system in SHINE. The stand-alone processor is used for the signal processing of stripline BPM, cavity BPM, cold button BPM, beam arrival measurement, bunch length measurement and other diagnostic systems. The main core is a SoC FPGA, which contains both quad-core ARM and FPGA on a chip. The ARM runs LINUX OS and EPICS IOC, and FPGA performs peripheral interfaces and high-speed real-time signal processing. An FMC carrier ADC board is mounted, which can sample 4 channels input signal with a maximum sampling rate of 1GSPS. The processor is equipped with a White Rabbit timing card, which can realize 1MHz high repetition rate synchronous measurement. Lab test results and on-line beam tests prove that the processor has high performance. This paper will introduce the processor development and applications on SHINE.

Design of beam collimator control system for HEPS
406
The primary function of the HEPS (High Energy Photon Source) collimator is to intercept lost particles induced by the Touschek effect, thus localizing beam loss and reducing it outside the collimator region. It also acts as a dump in emergency situations to meet equipment protection requirements. The collimator control system utilizes EtherCAT bus technology for precise motion control of the scraper. It interfaces with the EPICS system through modbusTCP, enabling remote operation from the HEPS control room. Due to its location in a high-radiation zone, the control system's drive components were selected for their special radiation resistance. On-site testing confirmed stable, precise movement of scraper meeting design requirements, and smooth operation of the remote control system.

Beam diagnostics control system upgrade of IPM LINAC
409
A series of upgrades has now begun to industrialize the applications of the experimental IPM electron LINAC. This includes upgrading the control system of the diagnostics tools and adding new tools and equipment to the system as well. The aim is to build an integrated control system to collect and manage all diagnostics signals. This will allow us to continuously monitor and archive all of the beam parameters for LINAC performance analysis and improvement. It is hence decided to migrate from LabVIEW to an EPICS-based control system which has many advantages in this regard. In the meantime, it is also required to employ more modern equipment with better control interfaces and add some extra diagnostics tools to the system as well. So during this upgrade, most of the job would be developing new control interfaces and high-level applications accordingly. In this paper, after a brief summary of the current diagnostics tools and our motivation for this upgrade, the scheme of the new control system and how different parts are integrated to the EPICS framework will be described.

Integrating InfluxDB and Grafana in a Dockerized CA EPICS Monitoring System
416
A data monitoring system based on CA and EPICS designed for particle accelerators is proposed, which leverages Docker containers for deployment and integrates InfluxDB for data storage and Grafana for data visualization. The Data Collection Engine built with Python gathers data through EPICS Channel Access, caches it temporarily, and stores it permanently in InfluxDB. A two-level cache design is used to optimize data access. The monitoring system also offers a web application for configuration management and a web application for online data access and visualization in real-time, which provides a powerful and user-friendly solution for data collection, storage, visualization, and management in particle accelerator experiments.

Development of beam loss measurement electronics based on ZYNQ in RCS of CSNS-II
528
The beam loss measurement system is an important beam measurement device in the CSNS accelerator, used to measure the beam loss signals along the entire accelerator to monitor the beam status. In CSNS, the beam loss measurement system uses NI PXIe-6358 acquisition card combined with self-developed front-end analog electronics. In the RCS of CSNS-II, a new beam loss electronics based on zynq development is planned to replace the existing electronics for beam loss signal acquisition. The CSNS-II ring beam loss measurement electronics based on zynq consists of independently developed high-voltage output modules, front-end analog boards, digital boards, as well as related driver programs, epics ioc software,etc,realizing functions such as signal acquisition, range control, data processing, epics publishing.
