This page contains information pertinent to the automation of the Muon Front End Beamline Control at ISIS.

Background & Timeline

The system is due on line September 2016.

Control System

Whilst the Front End control will be undertaken under IBEX, it must integrate with SECI as well as part of the system is to be used on existing instruments. Some of the IOCs will only be controlled from instrument PCs, whilst in some situations only monitoring will be required.

Equipment

Manufacturer Model Type Connection Driver Notes
Danfysik 8000 PSU RS232 DFKPS Created, some outstanding changes needed. See #1208 for comms settings.
Danfysik 9100 PSU RS232 DFKPS Created, some outstanding changes needed. See #1208 for comms settings.
Danfysik 8800 PSU RS232 DFKPS Created, some outstanding changes needed. See #1208 for comms settings.
TDK Lambda Genesys PSU RS232 TDK_ LAMBDA_ GENESYS Created, setup required
Glassman PG200P2.5 PSU via PLC
Kicker via PLC This is monitoring of a relay state
Momentum Slits via Galil Galil This is a separate project, and the same Galil controls the individual beamline jaws. See see Barndoors and Momentum Slits note
Pfeiffer TPG300 Vacuum Monitor RS232 TPG300
Valve Control via PLC This is the monitoring of various valves
Galil DMC2280 Motor Controller Ethernet EPICS
PLC This will be a modbus connection, as it is an existing PLC. The details are still unconfirmed

Barndoors and Momentum Slits

The barn doors and momentum slits control the muon beam delivered to the 3 muon instruments: HIFI, muSR and EMU. The control of these devices is described on the Barndoors & Momentum-Slits page.

Note: Motion

There is a project relating to the motion on the South Side Muons in progress, this information may be out of date
