A wireless control system based on MODBUS protocol has been developed for operation of the High Temperature Superconducting ECR ion source, PKDELIS [1], LEBT and associated systems on a 200 kV high voltage platform. The isolation channels for the two high voltage platforms are implemented using ISM band wireless channel. A server for organization wide connectivity over Ethernet for access from the main IUAC control room has been implemented. History features and an intuitive GUI interface is provided. The system has been in regular use and has proven to be rugged and reliable.

| THPD26 | Integrated Control System for LEHIPA | controls, interlocks, proton, DTL | 192 |

| The Low Energy High Intensity Proton Accelerator (LEHIPA) is a 20 MeV 30 mA proton accelerator which will be achieved in multiple stages. LEHIPA consists of several sub systems/devices located at different positions of the beam path which includes ION source , RF Power , RF Protection Interlock System, Low Conductivity Water plant, Low Level RF control Systems, Vacuum System, Beam Diagnostics & Beam Line Devices. All these subsystems have their own local control systems (LCS) which will coordinate the operation of the corresponding subsystem. The control system for LEHIPA is thus being designed as a Distributed Control System with different teams developing each LCS. The control system will assist the operator to achieve a beam of desired characteristics by interacting with various sub systems of the accelerator in a seamless manner,protect the various parts machine by generating the necessary interlocks ,keep track of various parameters monitored periodically by suitably archiving them, alarms annunciation and trouble shoot from the control room. This paper describes approach to system design of ICS. | |||
| THPD33 | Qt Based Control System Software for Low Energy Accelerator Facility | controls, ion, GUI, target | 206 |
|
|||
| Qt based control system software for low energy accelerating facility is operational in Trombay, BARC. LEAF is 50 keV negative ion electrostatic accelerator based on SNICS ion source. Control system uses Nokia Trolltech's QT 4.x API for control system software. Ni 6008 USB based multifunction cards has been used for control and read back field equipments such as power supplies, pumps, valves etc. Control system architecture is designed to be client server. Qt is chosen for its excellent GUI capability and platform independent nature. Control system follows client server architecture. This paper will describe the control system. | |||

| THPD43 | Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source Control System | ion, controls, ECR, vacuum | 217 |
|
|||
| The control system of Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) ion source is computer based control system. Main components of ECR ion source are microwave generator, plasma chamber, solenoid magnets, high current power supplies, extraction electrodes, high voltage power supplies, beam measuring devices and vacuum system. All the electronics devices have their built in microprocessor base electronic interface, which can be remotely accessed by serial or Ethernet link. Two numbers of Ethernet to four port serial converter modules are used to extend the serial interface capabilities of computer. Serial interface of all the devices are connected to the extended serial ports of the computer. Serial link of high voltage power supplies are optically isolated using optical isolators to overcome EMI and EMC problems. Software has been developed in house for remote operation of the ECR ion source electronic devices like magnetron power supply, high voltage power supplies, high current power supplies, microwave power measurement and vacuum gauges. | |||
