Infrared Free Electron Laser (IRFEL) is under development at MAASD, RRCAT Indore. The IRFEL machine consists of 90keV thermionic gun as electron source, beam transport line, 25MeV Linear Accelerator (LINAC) and an undulator magnet. There are fifty magnets on beam transport line. These magnets are energized by precision power supplies. These power supplies have local as well as remote control and will be located at equipment hall. The control room and equipment hall are at approximate distance of 300 m. We have planned a three layer structure for centralized operation of Beam Transport line Magnet Power Supplies (BTMPS). These layers are device interface layer, the equipment control layer and the presentation layer. Presentation layer is linked with equipment control layer on Ethernet. Whereas equipment control layer will be linked to device interface layer by RS-485. Device interface layer consist Magnet Power Supply Controllers (MPSC). Each MPSC has one master and five slave controllers linked on isolated SPI bus, which will control five BTMPS. We have developed slave controllers and a master as prototype of MPSC. This paper describes MPSC prototype and proposed control scheme.
