  The ESRF non-evaporable getter (NEG) coating facility is in operation since two years now. A large part of the insertion device straight sections of the electron storage ring has been equipped with in-house coated 5m long aluminum vacuum chambers with an inner vertical aperture of 8 mm. Operational experience with different coating parameters leading to different film thicknesses will be given and compared to bremsstrahlung data. The paper deals also with improvements of the coating production and chamber preparation, and describes some aspects of NEG coating data acquisition, visualization, and remote control. The R&D program leading to a more powerful DC solenoidal coating tool to further improve the NEG coating production throughput and quality aspects is also discussed.

  The temperature acquisition as well as the whole vacuum control system of the electron storage ring of the ESRF is in operation since more than ten years now. Apart from difficulties to have appropriate support for the old systems we start facing problems of aging and obsolescence. We have been reviewing our philosophy of data acquisition and remote control in order to update our systems with state of the art technology, taking into account our operational experience. We have started installing shielded “intelligent” devices inside the storage ring tunnel taking benefit from the availability of ethernet connections. Like this we can take advantage of the latest developments linked to these technologies, such as OPC Server, Webpage instrument control, and more.
