The EMBL is located at the DESY site in Hamburg and operates 5 beamlines at the DORIS III storage ring. Currently the EMBL Hamburg is in charge to build three new beamlines at the new PETRA III high-brilliance synchrotron radiation source which will commence user operation in 2009. A new multilayer double-crystal monochromator has been developed in house. This has been a real application test for the software and hardware architecture of the new PETRAIII beamlines. An embedded-PC controls the electronic integrated in the EtherCAT real-time Ethernet bus. Inside this PC a logic of PLCs directly drives the hardware allowing real time data acquisition. The control of the system is distributed and remotely accessible by a connection to a TINE device server. The commissioning phase has been done using a Labview TINE client application. The client is able to perform on-the-fly scans thanks to the PLC's base logic. In the following paper the different pieces of the system are presented as well as an overview of the instrument. | ||
